Explanation:

Bhagavad Gita reveals the identity of God and Srimad Bhagavatam (a.k.a Bhagavata Mahapurana) reveals the activities of God.

Bhagavad Gita comes in the Bhisma (6th) Parva of the great epic Mahabharata (Chapters 25 through 42). It is a dialogue between Lord Krishna and Arjuna. There are total 700 verses in Gita and it is also known as the essence of all Vedas. Lord Krishna in Verse 15.15 describe the purpose of the Vedas. He says -

"Vedais ca sarvair aham eva vedyo" - of all the Vedas, I am to be known.

This means that the purpose of the Vedas is to know Lord Krishna. This is the import of the Vedas and Lord Krishna gives this in one line. Ofcourse there is other knowledge in Bhagavad Gita.

Bhagavad Gita philosophically explains – Jiva (Soul), Ishvara (GOD), Prakriti (Material Nature), Kaal (Time) and Karma (actions and reactions). It can give a very clear understanding of these subjects. But more specifically, the Gita describes the best Aradhya (object of worship), which is Lord Krishna Himself and the best Sadhana (process of worship), which is Bhakti Yoga.

Srimad Bhagavatam on the other hand is a Puarana. Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu described it as the "Amala Purana" (spotless literature). Srimad Bhagavatam is the highest authority and the last word in Vedic Canon. There are 18,000 verses in Bhagavatam and it is organized in 12 cantos (Skandhas).

Bhagavatam was compiled by Veda Vyas in the highest stage of maturity. Srimad Bhagavatam itself describes its historicity. It is mentioned in the Bhagavatam (1st Canto, 4th Chapter) that after compiling all the Vedas, Ved Vyas was not satisfied and he was feeling dejected. He then wrote Vedanta Sutras (commentary on Vedas), but still he was feeling unsatisfied in his heart. He was deeply contemplating on the cause of his moroseness and at that time his Spiritual Master - the Great Sage Narada appeared there. Narada Muni first offered praises to Ved Vyas on his phenomenol task of compiling the Vedas, which was a herculean task for any one. But, later he chastised Ved Vyas.

Śrī Nārada said: You have not actually broadcast the sublime and spotless glories of the Personality of Godhead. That philosophy which does not satisfy the transcendental senses of the Lord is considered worthless. (SB 1.5.8)

Śrī Nārada further said: The people in general are naturally inclined to enjoy, and you have encouraged them in that way in the name of religion. This is verily condemned and is quite unreasonable. Because they are guided under your instructions, they will accept such activities in the name of religion and will hardly care for prohibitions. (SB 1.5.15)

Ved Vyas was further advised by Narada Muni to contemplate (in meditation) on the activities of the supremely Transcendental Lord Vasudeva and his pure and unalloyed devotees and then compile a literature that describes these activities.
