{{DISPLAYTITLE:directions formats}}

Per the microformats [[process]], towards the development of a [[directions]] microformat, this page documents pre-existing formats for directions.

== Formats ==

* Microsoft itinerary class - in Virtual Earth.
* GPX, the GPS Exchange Format ([http://www.topografix.com/gpx.asp website], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPS_eXchange_Format wikipedia]) allows representation of "routes" using the <var>rte</var> and <var>rtept</var> elements. <var>rtept</var> allows a <var>cmt</var> (comment) although it is not known whether GPX implementers are using the comments. [http://map.project-osrm.org/ OSRM] is an OpenStreetMap car routing services that exports GPX tracks in this format.
