GPX to FLIF Conversion
What are GPX files?
GPX (GPS Exchange Format) is an open, XML-based format for storing GPS data, created by TopoGrafix so that navigation devices, mobile apps, and websites could exchange it without any vendor lock-in. A GPX file can hold three kinds of things: waypoints, which are single places such as a summit or a campsite, routes, which are planned sequences of points to follow, and tracks, which are recorded paths with the time at which each point was passed. Each point has its latitude and longitude and can also have an elevation, a time, a name, and a comment. It is the standard way to share hiking, cycling, running, and driving routes, and it is supported by practically all GPS receivers, sport trackers, and mapping apps.
What are FLIF files?
FLIF (Free Lossless Image Format) is a royalty-free format launched at the end of 2015 as "work in progress" with the aim of offering a better alternative for storing lossless images than the existing PNG, WebP, BPG, JPEG2000 and JPEG XR. FLIF provides similar image quality as the other extensions, but in a file size than can be up to 74% smaller. The new format uses a form of the Adam7 algorithm for compressing images, offering progressive interlacing that allows users to obtain a reasonable encoding of an image even from a partial download.
