Hi,

when importing a GPX file created by Google MyTracks, it is imported well, but the activity type is not imported. The GPX file looks like this:
Code Select
<gpx version="1.1" creator="Created by Google My Tracks on Android" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1 http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1/gpx.xsd http://www.topografix.com/GPX/Private/TopoGrafix/0/1 http://www.topografix.com/GPX/Private/TopoGrafix/0/1/topografix.xsd">
<metadata><name>2016-02-20 08:57</name><desc>Jizerky</desc></metadata>
<trk>
<name>2016-02-20 08:57</name>
<desc>Jizerky</desc>
<type>cross-country skiing</type>
<extensions><topografix:color>c0c0c0</topografix:color></extensions>
<trkseg><trkpt lat="50.800432" lon="15.130012"><ele>825.7</ele><time>2016-02-20T07:57:36.529Z</time></trkpt>...
It should be "cross-country skiing".



on the other hand, when importing KMZ, description is not imported. KML looks like this:

The description should be "Jizerky"



I do not know what is the correct format for GPX and KML, if it is wrong, it is just a bug in MyTracks...

Hello;



Each app uses its own list of types of tracks, there isn't an universal list of types. I think that mytracks list and oruxmaps list doesn't match.



About the description in the kml file; there are a lot of places where a description of a route can be located. OruxMaps searches in a different 'description' tag; but I will take a look to the one you attach.

"cross-country skiing" could be ok (both for MyTracks and Oruxmaps), it is read correctly when importing from kml.



Thanks.
