How can I import a GPX layer?

Updated on tcpGPS Leer en español

To import a GPX layer in tcpGPS, you must use the layer manager following a procedure similar to that of other cartographic formats such as KML or GML.

The steps to perform the import are detailed below:

  1. Accessing the Manager: From the map screen in Survey or Setting Out Lines mode, open the Layer Manager.

  2. Add Layer: Press the Add Layer (+) button located at the bottom of the screen.

  3. Type Selection: Choose the GPX Layer option from the list of available layer types.

  4. File Location: The Android file explorer (SAF) will open, allowing you to select the .gpx file from your device's internal memory or directly from Google Drive.

  5. Property Configuration: Once the file is selected, you can define the Layer Name and the Opacity level (transparency) with which it will be displayed on the map in the editing screen.

  6. Completion: Press the Accept button to load the cartography into your work area.

Technical information and compatibility:

  • Supported Objects: The application is compatible with Waypoint and Track (routes or tracks) objects, provided they respect the standard structure of the GPX format.
