Though, to be honest I suspect writing to a Sqlite database and exporting unique values back to XML is probably going to be easier.

I found another way, without relying on SQLite: =============== parser = et.XMLParser(remove_blank_text=True) tree = et.parse(item,parser) root = tree.getroot() no_dups = {} for row in tree.iter("wpt"):     name,lat,lon = [row.find("name").text] + row.attrib.values()     if name not in no_dups:         no_dups[name] = lat,lon print(no_dups) ===============
