CLUSTER GPS-FILES-MAPS · 11 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2012-07-22
GPS track visualization tools
This cluster comprises desktop and mobile tools for importing, visualizing, analyzing, and editing GPS track files (such as GPX) on maps, with features like offline maps, route planning, and activity logging. Dated entries are sparse and irregular, appearing one at a time across 2012–2026 with no clear trend; two members have no source date. Traction leaders by activity signal are OpenTopoMap Viewer, GPXSee, and OSM Dashboard for OpenTracks, each showing 0 stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 11 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
