How to convert GPX to GeoJSON

  1. Add your GPX tracks

    Drop GPX files onto the box above, or click it to choose them. ToAny reads the file's contents to detect the type, so a wrong extension does not matter.

  2. GeoJSON is already chosen

    Press Convert. There is nothing else to set. The work happens in this tab.

  3. Download

    Save the GeoJSON, or download everything as one ZIP if you converted several files.

Why ToAny

  • Private by construction

    The GPX to GeoJSON converter is part of this page and runs inside your browser. Your tracks are never sent to ToAny or to anyone else.

  • No upload, no queue

    Nothing has to travel to a server and back, so the conversion starts the moment you press Convert, even on a slow connection.

  • Free, without an account

    No sign-up, no email address and no watermark. Add several files and download them together as a ZIP.

GPX to GeoJSON: what to expect

GPX is what GPS devices and fitness apps export. To draw the route on a web map with Leaflet or Mapbox, or to analyse it in a GIS, GeoJSON is the format those tools read. Tracks become lines and waypoints become points.

Every format is read into plain GeoJSON features and written out from there, so coordinates, names and properties carry over wherever the target has a place for them. XML that declares custom entities is refused, and GPX files are parsed without touching the network. Coordinates are written longitude first, then latitude, as GeoJSON requires.

GPX vs GeoJSON

GPX

GPX track file

GPX is the open XML format for GPS data and the common language of hiking, cycling and running apps. It records waypoints, planned routes and recorded tracks with time and elevation. Almost every GPS device and app can import and export it.

Opens in Garmin BaseCamp, Strava, Komoot, Google Earth, QGIS and nearly every GPS app

GEOJSON

GeoJSON map data

GeoJSON describes geographic features, points, lines and polygons, with their properties as plain JSON. It is the standard format for web maps. Coordinates are in WGS 84 and written longitude first, then latitude, the reverse of how most people say them.

Opens in QGIS, Leaflet, Mapbox, geojson.io, GitHub's map view and most GIS tools

Questions

Are my tracks uploaded anywhere?

No. The GPX to GeoJSON conversion runs inside your browser, on your own phone or computer. The file is not sent to ToAny or to anyone else.

Is anything lost when converting GPX to GeoJSON?

The values are kept. Anything GeoJSON has no way to express, such as formatting, formulas or nesting, is simplified or left out.

Can I convert several GPX files at once?

Yes. Add as many as you like, convert them together and download each result or all of them as one ZIP.

How do I convert GPX to GeoJSON on Windows, Mac, iPhone or Android?

The steps are the same everywhere because ToAny runs in the web browser: open this page in a current version of Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox, add the GPX file, press Convert and save the GeoJSON. There is nothing to install.

Is there a file size limit?

Yes. Files up to 150 MB are accepted; a larger file is refused with a message. Beyond that the limit is your device's memory, since nothing is uploaded; a computer copes with large files better than a phone.
