gpx_to_dotwalker_xml
====================

( home is currently at https://github.com/mnalis/gpx_to_dotwalker_xml )

Creates XML for Dotwalker (GPS application for blind people) from .gpx

You will need perl and XML::LibXML module.

Instructions:

1) create .gpx routing file in extended format (or you'll miss turn directions)
for example from: http://graphhopper.com/maps/

2) run "./gpx_to_dotwalker_xml.pl GrasHopper.gpx output.xml"

3) insert output.xml to Dotwalker

Also contains loadstone_to_gpx.pl, which converts loadstone .txt ('lsdb') export format to GPX
(and from GPX, via gpx_to_dotwalker_xml.pl, you can convert to Dotwalker route.xml). It additionally
requires Geo::Gpx and Text::CSV perl modules.

There is also web CGI version gpx2dotwalker.cgi, which supports both GPX and Loadstone txt as input,
and converts to Dotwalker XML output.

See http://mnalis.com/blind/g2dot/gpx2dotwalker.cgi for online converter, or set up your own.
