ah perfect, I completely missed this ... speed added

Perfect! Cant wait to get the update. 

Garmin also uses extensions for speed and course:

<gpxtpx:speed>1.37</gpxtpx:speed>
<gpxtpx:course>0.00</gpxtpx:course>

Wouldn't it be a good idea to add these as you are using them for cadence and heartrate?

Link to the XSD: http://www8.garmin.com/xmlschemas/TrackPointExtensionv2.xsd

I use 2.16.0 too, export format is GPX and not Trainingstagebuch.org

Ah ok. As Menion said, it depends on the gpx-Version. I suggest you selected 1.0.

@Menion: Perhaps you didn't read it :

Got the feedback from Nils, who is the developer of trainingstagebuch.org:

He implemented it the way you showed it in the example, but he, and me also, has no idea, what the <Locus:SenStrides>-Tag is meant for? Furthermore Nils suggests that it would be a great idea to add the distance to the <Extensions>-Tag.

Another point is, that I export automatically my tracks to gpx files and where is the speed tag already included:

So I wonder a bit that that Michael can´t find it....

Which version of locus pro do you use? Mine is 2.16.0. Older versions had the <speed> and <course> tag, but it is gone in the newest version.

Got the feedback from Nils, who is the developer of trainingstagebuch.org:

He implemented it the way you showed it in the example, but he, and me also, has no idea, what the <Locus:SenStrides>-Tag is meant for? Furthermore Nils suggests that it would be a great idea to add the distance to the <Extensions>-Tag.

I would write an email to the developer of trainingstagbuch.org. In the past he was very friendly an quick in implementing new thins into his import. Maybe he would also add this extension to his code. I will take your example and send it with my mail. I will post his response here.

Edit: Ticket (German): https://trainingdiary.zendesk.com/requests/56991

I export the gpx-file to Trainingstagebuch.org directly out of locus. As mentioned in my editing of my previous post: Maybe you could add some kind of tag inside a <extensions> tag? I think this best way to get a valid gpx-1.1 file and include the ant+-speed in it?

Speed was a tag in gpx 1.0 but removed with gpx 1.1. It was removed because you can calculate speed by the given coordinates...I think they missed the usage of accurate speed in cycling for example...
Is it a drawback to keep the speed tag, even being not standard? Another possibility would be using gpx 1.0 instead of 1.1. A solution would be great, because I use your software as cycling computer :-)

Edit: Maybe the <extensions> tag is the way to go? I saw some solutions using it to store nmea informations.

Good morning,

since the last update, my cadence/speed sensor (Garmin) thankfully works again. But now the information about the current speed given by the sensor is missing in the gpx file? The old version of locus exported it in the <speed> tag, which is not standard:

<pdop>9.00</pdop>
<course>250.900</course>
<speed>4.52</speed>
<extensions>
<gpxtpx:TrackPointExtension>
<gpxtpx:cad>12</gpxtpx:cad>
</gpxtpx:TrackPointExtension>
</extensions>
</trkpt>


The new locus does not have this tag anymore?

<gpxtpx:hr>165</gpxtpx:hr>

How can I get the sensor speed? Because the gps speed is very inaccurate
