Hi, Please answer with “reply-all” so your mails go also back to the list.
GDAL has two drivers for KML https://gdal.org/drivers/vector/kml.html https://gdal.org/drivers/vector/libkml.html#vector-libkml KML driver finds only one layer from your data ogrinfo --config gdal_skip libkml testcase.kml INFO: Open of `testcase.kml' using driver `KML' successful. 1: Stuttgart-Schweiz (3D Line String) LIBKML driver finds 4 layers ogrinfo testcase.kml INFO: Open of `testcase.kml' using driver `LIBKML' successful. 1: Tempor├ñre Orte 2: Stuttgart-Schweiz 3: GPS device 4: Tracks Layers 1 and 3 do not contain data but layers 2 and 4 do. It seems that you are using GDAL which either does not have LIBKML driver or it appears in the list of formats after KML. Check the drivers with command ogrinfo --formats. If you don’t have LIBKML you must get such GDAL build that has the driver. If you have both KML and LIBKML in that order, you must skip the KML driver with config option --config GDAL_SKIP KML. -Jukka Rahkonen- Lähettäjä: Manuel H. <manuelhew...@gmail.com> Lähetetty: lauantai 8. helmikuuta 2020 14.50 Vastaanottaja: Rahkonen Jukka (MML) <jukka.rahko...@maanmittauslaitos.fi> Aihe: Re: [gdal-dev] ogr2ogr ignoring tracks, only converting paths Test data with a track and a path. After simplification only the path is left: https://filebin.net/xp0qi0cfm4bs08cw The newer tracks I should have as GPX tracks, but likely not the old ones. I surely could simplify new ones before adding them to Google Earth, but I was looking for a way to simplify all the old data as easily as possible. I wanted to prevent having to export each track manually and then run it through a program before piecing it back together. My KML is over 80MB. Am Sa., 8.

If data area GPS logs, do you happen to have they also in GPX format that might have better support in GDAL and for example gpsbabel program? -Jukka Rahkonen- Manuel H. wrote > Hi, > > I was attempting to simplify my Google Earth KML file and found ogr2ogr > mentioned on the internet. > When I run it through the program, ogr2ogr seems to ignore everything that > is a "Track" according to Google Earth.
