Things to do

Just a quick list on things I plan to add in the near (and not so near) future. First urgent things:

  • User profile images,
  • Global RSS and user RSS feeds,
  • Track description for every track,
  • Trackprofiler logo,
  • Show all images (at the moment -- only geotagged images are shown),
  • Problem geotagging images for KML (which doesn't save timestamps for track points).
"Not so near" future TODO list:
  • Basic track editing tools:
    • Move entire track (for example "100m north")
    • Join/split track segments
    • Delete track segments
    • Delete track points
    • Smooth track graph
  • Basic social networking
    • "Friends"
    • "Followers"
  • Tag RSS
  • Email or RSS Subscriptions on TAGS and/or geographic locations
  • Geo search
  • Import images from photosharing sites

Position on graph - position on map

A friend of mine asked a good question. How to know where some location on the track profile graph is on the map?

After few hours of thinking and few more on programming ;) here's the answer... Move over the graph and a little pointer will move on the map. Now you can see where the peaks on the graphs are on the map and vice-versa:


By the way. This feature is still in beta. I works in Firefox, Opera and Chrome. Not sure for Internet explorer.

Trackprofiler2 goals

My main goal with this site isn't to create (yet another) traveler and/or hiking site. It is much simpler:
  • It is, simply, a place where I plan to upload and store all my GPS tracks. Nothing more, nothing less.
  • It is a place where anybody can, i 5 minutes create a visual representation of his GPS track. With photos, waypoints, track profile graph.
  • It will have a basic social network functionality. For example, anybody will be able to "follow" his friends and receive notifications when they upload new tracks.
  • Trackprofiler must have have a basic track editor.
