Hi,

It seems to be hardcoded in 
https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/blob/2cfeb1a9b03716c8348d6f1f4c611f2589d53e76/ogr/ogrsf_frmts/gpx/ogrgpxdatasource.cpp#L744

Aihe: [gdal-dev] including higher-level library in GPX creator string

I am a member of the GPX standards list, and we are discussing a new version 
and also dealing with broken data.

I wrote a gpx (from geojson), with just ogr2ogr, and the creator looks like 
this:

  creator="GDAL 3.5.3"

that's arguably totally fine with ogr2ogr.

But it seems that if some random big program links with gdal and uses it to 
produce a file, the creator is just GDAL, and not "qgis 3.28.5 via GDAL 3.5.3" 
or something like that.  I groveled over all my gpx files and found none that 
indicated anything like this.

It would be helpful to the GPX community if files were attributed to the larger 
software as well, so that they can be chased down or at least understood to be 
separately broken.

I don't see anything at
<link removed because our mail system made it so strange>
that could be used to do this.

Does this make sense to people here?

Is there any facility that would do this, that people just aren't using?

Any other thoughts?

Greg
