## Map your Google Location History
A simple python web app to visualise your Google location history. Similar to [Google Map's Timeline](https://www.google.com/maps/timeline) but gives a prettier and more comprehensive picture.
## Dependencies
You need ```Python``` libraries: ```Pandas```, ```Flask```, ```Shapely```.
## How to run
1. Install all Python dependencies.
2. Download your Location History data from [Google Takeout](https://takeout.google.com/settings/takeout).
3. Save ```LocationHistory.json``` in the ```input``` folder.
4. From the input folder, run ```python sample_location.py```. This matches points to countries and
samples the data to reduce the file size. This may take a few minutes.
5. From the root folder, run ```python app.py```.
