Python library for Suunto Ambit data files

Suunto Ambit XML files

Can be found on:

  • Windows: %HOMEPATH%\AppData\Roaming\Suunto\MovesLink2\
  • Mac OS X: /Users/YOUR_USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Suunto/Moveslink2/

Technically, these files are not XML, as they have multiple root elements. As a workaround this library internally first injects a dummy root element to the XML document (in memory).

Update: as of Moveslink2 v1.2.8 the application now stores files like 26FBXXXXXXXXXXXX-2014-08-24T15_01_49-0.sml. These are actually valid XML, and now somewhat supported by this library (not fully confirmed yet).

Plans / TODO

  • output to GPX (kinda done, not validated yet)
  • test with different settings, recording intervals, sports etc
  • check that output works nicely with QuickRoute (incl. HR etc)
  • figure out rest of the remaining fields
  • validate output
  • track segment / split time support
  • include something from the header section
  • figure out what the occasional IBI section contains
  • nice enough interface / class for non-GPX use cases
  • test files in this repo (my regular files are maybe too big, 2-4MB)
  • Python packaging (setup.py)
  • Debian packaging (debian/)
  • Windows usage instructions?

Test data

Initially this library is only tested with running, orienteering & cycling settings. At the moment only basic input files without gaps, splits etc have been tested.

There is also a GPLv3 licensed project called ambit2gpx, it might or might not do similar things.
