Generate interactive heatmaps from your Google Location History data

In plain words

Location History Visualizer is a browser-based tool that converts Google Location History data into interactive heatmaps. Users download their location data from Google Takeout, then upload it to the application for visualization. All processing occurs locally on the user's computer, ensuring their location data remains private and is not transmitted to external servers. The tool is designed for anyone wanting to explore patterns in their location history through visual representation.

Welcome to Location History Visualizer , a tool for visualizing your collected Google Location History data with heatmaps. Don't worry—all processing and visualization happens directly on your computer, so rest assured that nobody is able to access your Location History but you... and Google, of course. To start off, you'll need to go to Google Takeout to download your Location History data: on that page, deselect everything except Location History by clicking "Select none" and then reselecting "Location History". Then hit "Next" and, finally, click "Create archive". Once the archive has been created, click "Download". Unzip the downloaded file, and open the "Location History" folder…from theopolisme.github.io
