  • Over the road truck driving since 2016 via the Fog Of World app. [OC]
    If you have an android phone (and thus lots of Google location data) you can use this instead: https://locationhistoryvisualizer.com/heatmap/ It's open source and somewhat customizable but more importantly it's a heatmap so you can see where you've been AND the relative frequency of you going there. - Source: Reddit / 4 months ago
  • Google maps timeline question
    Https://locationhistoryvisualizer.com/heatmap/ is one. But the problem is, unless you are actively tracking, it will be just location dots, not a full GPS track. Sometimes it just doen't pick up on locations either. - Source: Reddit / 6 months ago
  • Another way to look at my travel since 2012 for ref been to DC area 3 times

  • Everywhere [within frame] my phone has been since 2014. Solid NW burbs bubble.
    If you have an android phone, you can do the same here: https://locationhistoryvisualizer.com/heatmap/. - Source: Reddit / 9 months ago
  • GMaps Timeline inacurrate when not in day view
    Does anybody have any ideas how to solve this issue? Maybe there is a way to create a heatmap in a tool like "Google My Maps" by manually exporting the data from the more detailed day view? I would also be open to other workarounds. Location History Visualizer seems to be based only on the inaccurate data from the month/year view. - Source: Reddit / 11 months ago
  • Saw someone else post about their location history that google has on them. Thought I'd check it out myself, it is fascinating.
    Takeout.google.com, sign in and it will complie all the data google has on you and send it to your email address. One of the files in the location history folder can be uploaded to https://locationhistoryvisualizer.com/heatmap/ and it will plot your data. - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
  • Started tracking my location 3 months ago, and this is my progress.
    Well, I use Google Maps every I go and along the way it saves your location history. You can download your Google Maps location history, even if you don’t use Google Maps, then your can take that data, and export it to a heat map generator, Location History Visualizer. - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
  • Consolidated "Timeline" over several years
    I saw online there is this open source tool to generate a heatmap based on JSON file, which would have been great: https://locationhistoryvisualizer.com/heatmap/. - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
  • [OC] 5 years of travel for work - tracked by Google Maps
    Https://locationhistoryvisualizer.com/heatmap/ All you need to do is download the data from google, and then upload the file on this website. - Source: Reddit / almost 2 years ago
  • [OC] An update to the travel heatmap I did a year ago.
    This site it uses your google location history. You'll need to download your location history from google and upload it here. - Source: Reddit / about 2 years ago
