Add swim activities

[gardiol]

As a triathlete, bike and run are great. Can you add also swim activities? They are of two kinds, open water, where a GPX will be available, or indoor pool, in that case all you need is pool length and number of repetitions....

I see that open water swimming is already present.

Hi,

yes open water swimming is available.

FitTrackee is built around gpx files with a focus on outdoor activities. The integration of other types of sport requires quite a few changes (which could be taken into account after rewriting the workout file processing).

Couldn’t one simply generate a GPX file via script? During indoor swimming, the GPS coordinates don’t really change much, and what matters more are the number of lanes and the time. To create the GPX file, you’d only need the GPS coordinates of the swimming pool once, and then based on the time and number of laps, you could generate a GPX file that can be processed in FitTrackee just like any other GPX data. In many indoor pools, GPS reception usually isn’t available anyway.
