Safely share GPS tracks by removing sensitive information from GPX files
This project anonymizes GPX files by stripping out metadata and personal location data that may compromise your privacy—making your GPS tracks safer to share online.

🔍 Why Use This?

GPX files often contain more than just coordinates—they can include:

• Timestamps
• Device information
• Starting points like home or work

This tool helps you sanitize that data before sharing.

🚀 How to Use

1. Set the source directory

Edit the SRC_DIR variable in the Makefile to point to your folder of GPX files:

SRC_DIR=/your/path/to/gpx/files

2. Run the anonymization process

make

3. Get your clean files

• Processed (anonymized) GPX files will appear in the anonymized/ folder
• Log files are in the logs/ directory

4. Make maps to validate

Create static maps in anonymized/maps/

make maps
