| | | 0x6bAd13667692632f1bF926cA9B421bEe7EaEB8D4

Dawarich is a self-hosted web application to replace Google Timeline (aka Google Location History). It allows you to import your location history from Google Maps Timeline and Owntracks, view it on a map and see some statistics, such as the number of countries and cities visited, and distance traveled.

You can find changelog here.

⚠️ The project is under very active development.

⚠️ Expect bugs and breaking changes.

⚠️ Do not delete your original Google Maps Timeline data after importing it to Dawarich.

⚠️ Export your data from Dawarich using built-in export functionality before updating to a new version.

⚠️ Try to keep Dawarich up-to-date to have the latest features and bug fixes.

To track your location, install the Owntracks app or Overland app on your phone and configure it to send location updates to your Dawarich instance.

The url to send the location updates to is http://<your-dawarich-instance>/api/v1/owntracks/points?api_key=YOUR_API_KEY.

Currently, the app only supports HTTP mode of OwnTracks.

The url to send the location updates to is http://<your-dawarich-instance>/api/v1/overland/batches?api_key=YOUR_API_KEY.

Your API key can be found and/or generated in the user settings.

To import your Google Maps Timeline data, download your location history from Google Takeout and upload it to Dawarich.

You can track your location using the Owntracks or Overland app.

You can view your location history on a map. On the map you can enable/disable the following layers:

• Heatmap
• Points
• Lines between points

You can see the number of countries and cities visited, the distance traveled, and the time spent in each country, splitted by years and months.

You can import your existing location history from:

• Google Maps Timeline
• OwnTracks
• Strava
• Your own GPX files
• Your photos' EXIF data

docker-compose up to start the app. The app will be available at http://localhost:3000.

Press Ctrl+C to stop the app.
