Driving Video Synched to Google Maps

Driving Video Synched to Google Maps

Exploring the San Francisco docks with a camera attached to the grill of a Cushman, a GPS unit, and a couple of geeks.

“The brain is a little Python script I wrote that tags each picture with GPS coordinates that it gets live from my Wintec WBT-201, and hopefully when you play the video you see the position of the picture on Google Maps. The picture taking part runs really well and I could conceivably leave the laptop in the trunk, but I like to see the pictures as they’re taken. And besides I like to watch everyone freak out when they see the computer in the front seat, they think I’m doing some kind of deep scan on their cars for overdue parking tickets.” - Wrybread
