telemetry-injector

Introduction

telemetry-injector takes a series of geotagged photos and creates a video with either CAMM or GPMD telemetry.

How it works

We needed a way to upload to videos to the Google Street View API for our Trail Maker product.

Previously we uploaded videos alongside a gpx files as described in our blog; Creating a Video File Ready to be Uploaded to the Google Street View API.

However, we wanted a way to inject telemetry into the video so that the video could be shared elsewhere, without the requirement to always share the GPX file alongside it.

Google Street View supports CAMM and GPMD telemetry standards.

Therefore this script;

  1. takes a series of geotagged images
  2. parses out the telemetry into a gpx file
  3. creates a camm / gpmd binary file from gpx
  4. creates a video file from photos
  5. injects the camm binary stream into the video

The specifics of how each step in this process works...
