There is actually information in the file, i.e. the first point is:

Cannot read it in R. Maybe I'm not using the appropriate settings for dsn
and layer (I've tried
many alternatives):

The variants are as described in the readOGR help file, that is layer=
"waypoints", "tracks", "routes", "track_points", or "route_points". Maybe reading the help page might save time??

PS. I think that the OGR GPX driver expects a number of fields that are most often absent when reading (so generating NULL/NA), and may not handle other extra user-defined fields gracefully. If need be, create a short string in the NAME or name field to concatenate the data you need, that is work around apparent shortcomings in the driver.


writeOGR(AilantMSY09WGS84LL,
dsn="/media/TRANSCEND/MONTSENY2008/MONTSENY_GEODATA/FloraExotica2009/AilantMSY09R.gpx",layer="AilantMSY09R",driver="GPX",dataset_options="GPX_USE_EXTENSIONS=YES")

test <-
readOGR(dsn="/media/TRANSCEND/MONTSENY2008/MONTSENY_GEODATA/FloraExotica2009/AilantMSY09R.gpx",layer="AilantMSY09R")Error
in ogrInfo(dsn = dsn, layer = layer, input_field_name_encoding =
input_field_name_encoding) :
 Cannot open layer
