Activities

It's now possible to specify the activity of the track when you upload it.
Registered users can also specify/modify the type of the track on their homepage.
Icons are heavily inspired by Google Maps Icons.

When & Where

Added "when" and "where" to the track description:

• When indicates the date the track was recorded (only for tracks with time information, we use first found time)
• Where indicates the country and - if possible - the state/region of the starting point (we use Google Geo Location API and try to extract something meaningful from the results it returns)
  

Example: http://gpsfly.org/g/

Garmin TrackPointExtension

Fixed the bug with Garmin TrackPointExtension handling, now data is imported properly.

Those data usually consist of things like hearth rate, cadence, temperature. Examples of tracks with such data:

http://gpsfly.org/a/278
http://gpsfly.org/a/5

New version is online

We have decided to put online the new version of gpsfly, despite its incompleteness, because we were a little lost in the development. Feedback is appreciated.

So, now what's new?

• You can analyze your track on a special page, where different graphs like speed and elevation are shown. Here you find an example: http://gpsfly.org/a/283
• Track summary: average speed, time, moving time, pace, hearth-rate, temperature, etc
  
• User personal homepage
  
• Drag and drop upload on the personal page (except IE)
• Edit track title and description on the personal homepage
  
• Improved track player: play backward, proportional speed, track position control slider
• Support for tracks in the sky (paragliding, airplane, etc). Example: http://gpsfly.org/g/17
  
• Help tooltips (that you can disable)
• For more interactivity there is a discussion group, where you can report bugs and suggest features.

Work in Progress: User Homepage

User page, upload tracks by drag and drop, edit title and description, delete.
Coming: labels and activities

Work in progress

We are currently working to further develop the interface of gpsfly.org.

There will be some graphs representing the data contained in the gps file.
The layout of the gps page will be flexible, i.e. you will be able to change the dimensions of the page, to re-size the map and the graphs, to choose how many graphs you want to see, where, etc etc.

As pictures speak better than words, here some screenshots of the progressing work
