Hello, I’m looking for a good tool to selfhost some kind of location history similar to Google’s one. To have some data I can test the tools with, I merged every of my bicylce and hiking tours to one GPX file containing 7000km worth of travel. Then I tried this tool, but it really lags with so much data and every move and every zoom takes some seconds to load. Next I tried the “Phonetrack” app on my nextcloud instance, but this as well lags and I have to activate every track manually and they are color coded. I really like the connection between the phonetrack app on my Android and the nextcloud app, but I am afraid that I’ll eventually run into the same performance problem when I gathered enough data. I’ve seen that theres OwnTracks, but it seems you have to set up your own server and I don’t want to pay extra next to my nextcloud subscription. Do you know of any kind of location history tool I can use that can handle big amounts of data?
Yeah, i think my data set is around 14mb when i load it all (and it loads all points to the browser). that is a bit of a loading lag, but once loaded it is ok.
The other issues is when you zoom out, you cannot pan around. you have to do clever scrolling (zoom) in and out to get to where you want.
I think it should be reasonabley easy to do the server side updates, but i cannot javscript front end to save my life!
here is a JS one i tried to build
