Bonus points for having the options not sorted 👍

Reitti displays data coming either from an import. You could upload GPX, GeoJson files or export the data from google maps and import that. If you want more up to date data, you could install an app on your phone which pushes your latest locations into Reitti. GPSLogger or Owntracks are at the moment supported for that

No, not really. It just makes it easier to spin up all the needed services and it is at the moment the “documented” way.

On the release there is also jar of Reitti.

If you need any help in starting that, let me know.

You are right, I missed that they are still open for the other services. I have mine running behind traeffik and did removed all port definitions.

I will change the compose file to only expose Reitti.

Thanks for the feedback🙏

Hi ada,

yes, this will impact the visit calculation. Visits are calculated in building clusters of at least 5 points in a range of 100m over a duration of at least 5 minutes. If there is only one point logged for example at work or home, Reitti is not able to detect when you left it because every point is just an instant in time and does not carry any duration information with it.

The more points we have to calculate Visits the more accurate it will be. I personally have set up GPSLogger to log every 30 seconds no matter how far I travelled but with at least 40m of accuracy.

Hi LazyToad,

it depends. Reitti on its own does not import any pictures. It only shows fetches them from Immich. For that to work it needs the geolocation where the image was taken in the exif data. You need to check if your expected image has this data in Immich. If it is available it shoud be displayed on the map if you select the day the picture was taken.

Does it show the location in Immich? You can verify this if you open the image in Immich and let it display the Info.

If it is showing, then it still could be that it is a bug in Reitti. Feel free to open an issue then :)

Thank you very much for these kind words. Means a lot to me if my little tool brings value to you :)

I am glad it worked out for you in importing the first file. I am still puzzled why it took that long.

For the new format, did you have Android or iOS? With the timeline export from Google Maps on iOS, we can not do anything at the moment because there is actually no raw data in it. Only information like you stayed in this timeframe at that point and you traveled between these points. It’s actually a little bit funny that it aggregates to the same data Reitti uses in the end.

If you are on Android, it could also be a bug when importing that file. I only had a small one from one of my accounts to test. If you mind creating a bug report, I will have a look. If you do not want to attach the export file there, feel free to send it to daniel@dedicatedcode.com. I will have a look at it then privately. No problem.

For the overlap in exports, it depends. If the points are the same, meaning they have the same timestamp, then Reitti will discard them. If not, they will be handled like every other new data and will end in recalculating visits and trips around that particular time.

This process is not triggered by any external events.

Every ten minutes, an internal background job activates. Its function is to scan the database for any RawLocationPoints that haven’t been processed yet. These unprocessed points are then batched into groups of 100, and each batch is sent as a message to be consumed by the stay-detection-queue. This process naturally adds to the workload of that queue.

However, if no new location data is being ingested, once all RawLocationPoints have been processed and their respective flags set, the stay-detection-queue should eventually clear, and the system should return to a idle state. I’m still puzzled as to why this initial queue (stay-detection-queue) is exhibiting such slow performance for you, as it’s typically one of the faster steps.

That’s good, but I still question why it is so slow. If you receive these timeout exceptions more often, at some point the data will cease to be analyzed.

I just re-tested it with multiple concurrent imports into a clean DB, and the stay-detection-queue completed in 10 minutes. It’s not normal for it to take that long for you. The component that should take the most time is actually the merge-visit-queue because this creates a lot of stress for the DB. This test was conducted on my laptop, equipped with an AMD Ryzen™ 7 PRO 8840U and 32GB of RAM.

Thanks for getting back to me. I can look into it. I don’t think it’s connected, but you never know.

The data goes the same way, first to RabbitMQ and then the database. So it shouldn’t matter, it’s just another message or a bunch of them in the queue.

It is actually awesome if you have some old photos with the geodata attached and scim through Reitti and suddenly one of them shows up :)

Hmm, I had hoped you say something like a Raspberry PI :D

But this should be enough to have it processed in a reasonable time. What I do not understand in the moment is, that the filesize should not affect it in any way. When importing it 100 Geopoints are bundled, send to RabbitMQ. From there we retrieve them, do some filtering and save them in the database. Then actually nothing happens anymore until the next processing run is triggered.

But this than works with the PostGis DB and not with the file anymore. So the culprit should be there somewhere. I will try to insert some fake data into mine and see how long it takes if i double my location points.

Thanks for the information. I will try to recreate it locally. In my testing I used a 600MB file and this took maybe 2 hours to process on my server. It is one of these ryzen 7 5825U. Since Reitti tries to do these analysis on multiple cores we start it with 4 to 16 Threads when processing. But the stay detection breaks when doing it that way, so it is locking per user to handle that. If now one of them takes a long time the others will break eventually. They will get resheduled 3 times until rabbitmq gives up.

On what type of system do you run it?

I will add some switches so it is configurable how many threads are opened and add some log statements to print out the duration it took for a single step.

It was not intentional but after bothering not about it because i had other things on my mind i got used to it and now like it the way it is.

But for everyone who is bothered by that. If Reitti reaches 1k stars on Github I will add a switch to use a centered one 😊

Congratulations 😆

To help with that I would need some information:

• does it show anything in the logs?
• what do you mean by several years or how big was the Records.json?

Thank you for testing 🙂

Oh, i had the idea in mind what i want to create and than it was a matter of a couple of Google queries but in the end one of the LLM suggested a list of different names in foreign languages and reitti somehow sticked 😊

I had a similar setup with Home Assistant in the past so I understand your usecase. For Reitti to detect visits somewhat reliable it needs at least one datapoint of location data a minute. We build location clusters with minimum 5 points in 5 minutes. If HA tracks that often it should work. HA probably tracks more than that.

I could add an integration that Reitti fetches the data from Home Assistant. Do you mind in creating a feature request?

Thanks :)

No, did not occur to me. What would the integration look like? Connecting it to the message bus to receive location updates? Honestly it is a couple years ago I played with HA.

Thanks :) As a German I really like the name Dawarich. First it sound really nice for me but also that “Da war ich” means “There have i been” in german makes, at least for me, an awesome project name.

Take this with a grain of salt because I have no idea what the plans are for Dawarich or have ever been and this is solely based on my external view. For me the main differences are:

• visits and trips are our main data, everything else is just the way to calculate them. For Dawarich it looks to me, that it is the other way around. It displays all the location data in good way with the heatmap and so on but visits or places seems so tacked on. This should not be an offense against it. I actually still have an instance running and it was the main pushing point to finally start working on Reitti.
• the sleek UI but this depends on your taste

In the end, they are not that far off. Maybe a matter of taste.
