Location History Mapper

This is a javascript app to show your Google location history on a heatmap.

Using it

The app runs in your browser but it's intended to be run on a local server, since the location history file can be upwards of 100MB (and besides, you probably don't want to share it).

I'll assume working installs of bower and python.

  • Clone this repo somewhere.

  • Run bower install

  • Grab your location history using Takeout as a .zip. Make sure to choose the JSON format. Pull LocationHistory.json out of the archive and move it into the project's root directory, wherever you cloned it. LocationHistory.json is in the .gitignore so you don't accidentally upload it.

  • Run python -m SimpleHTTPServer <port number> in the root directory of the project

  • Go to http://localhost:<port number> in your web browser. It might take a little while to load and then render the data if you have a lot of location history.
