GPX to CSV Converter
GPX files store GPS waypoints, routes, and tracks from phones, Garmin devices, Strava exports, and mapping apps. Spreadsheets cannot open GPX directly. This free GPX to CSV converter extracts points in your browser into rows with type, name, latitude, longitude, elevation, time, and description.
Key features
- Waypoints, route points, and track points in one table.
- Client-side XML parsing — files stay in the browser.
About the GPX to CSV format
GPX is XML. The converter reads <wpt>, <rtept>, and <trkpt> elements, including namespaced documents, and maps attributes and child elements into CSV columns.
Common use cases
- Analyzing a hike track in Excel.
- Cleaning waypoint names before re-importing to a GPS app.
- Combining multiple GPX dumps after converting each to CSV.
How to use this tool
- Paste or upload .gpx.
- Preview points.
- Download CSV.
Example
Input GPX (excerpt)
<wpt lat="51.5" lon="-0.12"><name>Ada</name></wpt>Output CSV columns
type,name,latitude,longitude,...Tips for best results
- Large tracks create many rows — filter in the preview or split files if needed.
- Use CSV to GPX to rebuild waypoints from lat/lon columns.
Common pitfalls
Only point geometries are exported; track segment metadata beyond points is flattened.
