<h1>Uploading GPS tracks and locations</h1>
<h2>The end-result you are trying to achieve</h2>
What you are trying to do is to get your recorded locations (waypoints) and wanderings (tracks)
appear properly in the cave survey database. But you have to upload
the tracks and waypoints in a GPX file to the right place.
<p>If you are really lazy (or really a beginner) you can use the simple upload method, but there are some
unavoidable complexities in getting the GPX file out of your device.
<p><em>(If you are looking for how to upload some photos instead, those instructions are
<a href="uploading.html">here</a>)</em>.
<h3>Instructions: contents</h3>
<ol>
<li><a href="#getgpx">Get the GPX file</a> that holds your locations and wanderings.
<li><a href="#uploadgpx">Upload the GPX file</a> to the proper place.
</ol>
<h2 id="getgpx">Getting the GPX data out of your phone or device</h2>
<ol>
<li>Use the "Wikilocs" app (or another app with GPS tracking function) to record your track as you walk across the plateau.
<li>When you have finished your walk and are back on the internet, publish your track using the app.
<li>In the app,there is an option to "share" your track by email:
<ul>
<li>Share it with yourself i.e. email it to your own email address.
<li>Share it with someone who knows how to do the GPX thing and upload it properly.
</ul>
<li>On your laptop (or possibly on your phone) look at the email and visit the web page by clicking on the link.
<li>The web page has a "Download" button: click on it.
<li>It may give you options such as "Garmin", or "File". Choose "File".
<li>It will ask for a filename to use. Pick something like "northplat-asmith-2018-07-29" (if your name is Aaron Smith)
<li>A GPX file "northplat-asmith-2018-07-29.gpx" will be downloaded to the Downloads folder on your laptop.
</ol>
<p>
Congratulations. You now have your track recorded using GPS as a GPX file.
<h2 id="uploadgpx">Upload instructions</h2>
<h3>Simple upload instructions</h3>
<ol>
<li>Email the public link from the app to someone who knows how to do it. <br>
<li>Email the GPX file to someone who knows how to do it. <br>
GPX files are small, so don't be shy of adding them as attachments.
</ol>
<h3>More complex upload instructions</h3>
