import_gpx_and_reproject_in_arcmap



  • Start the tool Quick Import.


  • Click Input Dataset and specify the format to GPX and the path to your GPX file. It’s very important that you specify coordinate system.


  • Accept the output database name and click OK.


  • The database will end upp under your ArcGis directory


  • Open the database and drag your new feature class to the map window. Note that it will be in WGS84. If you plan to use it together with data in a different coordinate system you should reproject your feature class.


  • To transform your data, use the Project tool.


  • Since you specified the projection when converting from GPX, the coordinate system will automatically be recognized. If data doesn’t have a defined projection you will get an error message at this stage.


  • Specify output name, coordinate system and transformation. Click OK

  • Done
