Sorting by time with gpsbabel (oh and I cycled 36 kilometers today)
I noticed when viewing my resulting track that there was something weird about the time. In the gpx file it was visible that the waypoints were not processed in order. So I searched for the way to make gpsbabel sort the waypoints by time. It took a bit of searching because I couldn't find any sample of sorting by time or other sorting options. But with some reading and thinking I found:
koos@kernighan:~/garmin$ gpsbabel -x sort,time -i garmin_fit -f 2020-10-20\ 13-12-51.fit -o gpx -F 2020-10-20\ 13-12-51.gpx koos@kernighan:~/garmin$The -x sort,time is 'sort by time'. And I cycled 36 kilometers today. Some slight uphill parts, which lower my speed seriously. And the accompanying downhill parts increase my speed (and I keep pedalling, no need to limit my speed options as long as it's safe).
