Export a trip as GPX or CSV
Every trip SpeedLog records can be exported as a GPX file for maps and training apps, or as a CSV file for spreadsheets. Export is part of SpeedLog Pro.
How to export
- Open the Trips tab and tap the trip you want.
- Tap the share button at the top right.
- Choose GPX or CSV, then pick where to send it: Files, Drive, email, or another app.
What is in a GPX file
GPX is the standard file format for GPS tracks. SpeedLog writes one track point per GPS reading, about one per second, each with:
- latitude and longitude, to six decimal places (about 10 cm)
- elevation in metres, when the phone provides it
- the time, in UTC
- the speed in metres per second, in a
<speed>extension
Apps and sites that open GPX files include Google Earth, OsmAnd, gpx.studio and Strava (upload it as an activity from the website). Your route then shows up on a real map.
What is in a CSV file
The CSV file has one row per point and these columns:
| Column | Meaning |
|---|---|
time | UTC time in ISO 8601, for example 2026-11-03T15:36:12Z |
lat, lon | position in degrees |
alt_m | altitude in metres, empty when unknown |
speed_mps | speed in metres per second |
To convert speed in a spreadsheet: multiply speed_mps by 3.6 for km/h, by 2.237 for mph, or by 1.944 for knots.
Ideas
- Keep a mileage log for work trips: export each trip as CSV and paste the totals into your expense sheet.
- Compare two runs of the same commute and see where the time goes.
- Upload a bike ride to a training app that accepts GPX.
- Back up trips before changing phones; your data never leaves the phone unless you export it.
