How to do this

[Jörgen]

Hi,

just found this picture on the Internet.

I wonder how that Data (time, km, speed etc.) comes into the Waypoint?

Was it a Track with this data converted into a route, or how? It must be a recorded track.

@Jörgen I am guessing that this has has been manually entered as the name for the waypoint via the "T" button/icon

No, I don't think so. It is embedded in the GPX data.
GPX files can contain additional information.

*In addition to these main components, GPX files may contain other data embedded in the XML structures:

Time: Timestamps for waypoints and track points indicating the time of recording. This is particularly useful for analysing speed or progress.

Elevation: The exact altitude above sea level for each point.

Speed and heart rate: Certain GPX extensions can store data such as speed, heart rate or cadence recorded by fitness devices or smartwatches.

Name and description: Descriptions or names for waypoints, routes and tracks, which enable better organisation and identification.

Links: References to external websites or files that provide further information about the route or waypoints.*

I think it is waypoints from a Basecamp GPX file and exported as a CSV. Someone has then joined the data they wanted from several columns in the CSV into the Waypoint description for MRA (hence the dashes between bits of info to make them intelligible) So they have made a CSV with Long Lat and description with data from a few columns joined into one. The CSV has been imported as a route and when you click on the waypoint all of the information shows up from the description column of the CSV import.

@Mzokk
I think you are right, that is the only way to import such data. The only thing is that MRA strangly enough only uses the “Name” datafield for import and export, so all data must be in that field.
As we speak I am fiddeling around with google sheets and java script to make a POI converter that can import/ export GPX and KML and geo-reference data ( get data out of Google).
As MRA only does use the name field I was thinking of making a special script for MRA to add data into the name field of the POI.
If that works it is “easy” to convert the GPX import into a track import and do the same.

I got this working so far (sorry for the Dutch, but you get the idea.)

@Jörgen :
Waht are you plans to do with the data? just info?
