# GpxEdit owncloud/nextcloud application

Simple Owncloud/Nextcloud app to load, edit and save GPX files on an interactive map.
You can load/save files from your Owncloud/Nextcloud file storage.
GPX, KML, CSV (unicsv format) and geotagged JPG are supported for loading. JPG files are loaded as waypoints.
Files can be loaded in GpxEdit interface or in Files app.

This is not a perfect GPX editor.

What's saved :
- metadata
    - name
    - link url
    - link text
- tracks
    - name
    - comment
    - description
    - points
        - coordinates
        - elevation (just preserves loaded values)
        - time (just preserves loaded values)
- waypoint
    - coordinates
    - name
    - comment
    - description
    - symbol
    - elevation (just preserves loaded value)
    - time (just preserves loaded values)

GpxEdit does load/save time data.
Elevation data is loaded and saved but every new waypoint/track/trackpoint added by user actions in GpxEdit will have neither elevation nor time data.
There is an "approximate" option to set elevation to new points if surrounding points have elevation data.

Tracks are saved with one segment (trkseg tag).

GpxEdit :
- allows you to add extra symbols in admin settings (section : additional)
- works with server-side encryption.
- works with shared files.
- loads GPX, KML, unicsv CSV, geotagged JPG files (no more Gpsbabel dependency)
- loads tracks, routes and waypoints
- saves tracks, routes and waypoints
- supports waypoint symbols
- uses [Leaflet.Draw](https://github.com/Leaflet/Leaflet.draw) and [Leaflet.draw.plus](https://github.com/Dominique92/Leaflet.draw.plus) amazing plugins
- uses many other Leaflet plugins like Minimap, Sidebar2, MeasureControl, MousePositionControl
- uses JQuery
- adds possibility to edit .gpx files directly from the "Files" app
- is able to cut lines in two

This app is tested on Owncloud 10 with Firefox and Chromium.
This app is tested on Nextcloud 11 and 12 with Firefox and Chromium.

Any feedback will be appreciated.

If you want to help to translate this app in your language, take the english=>french files in "l10n" directory as examples
or launch a little python tool i wrote :

```
cd /path/to/gpxedit
./tools/checkTranslations.py LANGUAGE ./ gpxedit
```
