How It Works
Create GPS art in 4 simple steps.
1
Choose a shape
Pick from our library of 50+ shapes — animals, letters, symbols — or draw freehand. You can also type text or import an image to vectorize.
2
Position on the map
Move, resize, and rotate the shape on the map. Place it over the area where you want to run or ride. The preview shows you exactly what the route will look like.
3
Snap to roads
Click 'Project onto roads' and our algorithm calculates the best route along real streets and paths. The result is a 100% runnable route that matches your shape.
4
Export & run
Download the GPX file and import it into Strava, Garmin Connect, or any GPS watch. Follow the route and watch your GPS art come to life!
Tips for great GPS art
- •Start with simple shapes (heart, star) before trying complex ones.
- •Residential areas with many streets work best — they give more routing options.
- •Avoid highways and restricted areas — the router will detour around them.
- •Bigger shapes are often easier — gives more room for road adjustments.
- •Check the elevation profile before running — some routes may have unexpected hills!
