Google updated the json file structure for location history

Open marco151polo opened this issue 2 years ago • 11 comments

The location history visualizer heatmap and pro don't work with the new json files yet. How can this be fixed?

Indeed.

I bought the Pro, used to work before, got the latest 1.6.1 still doesn't work with latest export.

What a joke..

Hey there im not/was never a part of the team that made this. I just contributed stuff to the open source/free website a while back. I think you can more or less consider this project dead though.

Bumping a year-old thread, but I assume you're referring to the Semantic Location History which now separates the data by month instead of a single JSON file for all data.

Since it looks like this repo won't be getting any updates, I forked it and implemented the fix from the latest pull request, which solved the issue of my json files not working.

The link is here if anyone wants to use it.

@huntfx do you happen to know if something has changed with the format again? I can't find Records.json inside my location history archive. image

@vzabawski It's still the same for me, just did a fresh export and it gave me the json file

@huntfx Awesome! by any chance is there a way to do this for the Pro version of Location History Visualizer?

Thank you! Love this feature and with 13 years of data the map is so interesting, to me anyway!

I only changed a couple of lines in the source code - I barely know Javascript haha. Besides I'd imagine the code for the pro version isn't open source.
