All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
- Updated to Python 3
- Fixed broken URLs
- Thumbnail creation (stored in a separate folder) for each geotagged file in order to speed up the opening of the "_thumbs" .KML file (Requires: Pillow) and avoid crashing Google Earth Pro
- File format conversion from .HEIC to .JPG (Requires: Win/Mac ImageMagick, Ubuntu libheif-examples). The script doesn't replace the original files
- Metadata in the placemark pop-ups
- Calculation of the distance traveled for each path (Requires: geopy)
- Ability to view GPS points on Google Maps website by clicking on the provided URL in the placemark pop-ups
- Ability to view paths on Bing by clicking on the provided URL in the paths pop-ups
- Counter for path lines created (paths containing at least two GPS points)
- Removed altitude from placemark names to make names shorter. The altitude is shown in the placemark pop-ups
- Path lines are assigned a brighter color (Requires: randomcolor)
- Pictures with 90-degree rotation (Orientation tag: Rotate 90 CW) are now displayed in the correct orientation in the placemark pop-ups
- Creation of two different .KML files:
- .KML file with standard placemark icons
- .KML file with thumbnails of geotagged images used as placemark icons. It can take some time to load this file.
- Detection of geotagged .HEIC images
- GPS points are grouped by: YYYY | YYYY:MM | YYYY:MM:DD. Useful when dealing with a large amount of files.
- Output files renamed to: ScriptExecTimestamp_exif.csv, ScriptExecTimestamp_icons.kml and ScriptExecTimestamp_thumbs.kml
- The script is now cross-platform
- Changed field separator from * to |
- Random color assignment for path lines
- Support for iPhone geotagged videos (.MOV)
- General bug fixes
- First public release
