Elevation [Mac, Windows, Processing]

elevation00

Created by Dave Shea, Elevation is a free, open source Mac and Windows application built using Processing that allows you visualise GPS data in 3D space.

You’ll need to have a GPS-equipped phone or device capable of tracking your activity as you run, hike, cycle, skate, ski, snowboard, or whatever other physical activity you choose to map. You’ll also need the ability to export that data as XML, in either GPX or KML format. (If you have files in just about any another format, you can probably use GPSBabel to convert them to GPX files and get them working with Elevation.)

Elevation knows how to work with XML files in the GPX and KML formats.

Due to inconsistent file structures, it may not work with every GPX or KML file; so far Elevation has been tested with files from the iPhone app RunKeeper Pro, Nokia’s Sports Tracker, and files converted to GPX using GPSBabel.
