Apple HealthKit XML -> GPS routes on HTML 5 canvas. An experiment in data viz

healthkit-workout-routes

Provide an Apple HealthKit XML export and the magic within will help you parse out GPS routes, spin up a small Vue.js + Nuxt.js application, and serve up your routes plotted on HTML5 canvas elements. Have fun!
