Extract GPS and sensor data for advanced workflows

Telemetry Extractor

Convert the sensor data recorded by GoPro and many other cameras (GPS, Accelerometer, Gyroscope, camera settings and more) to formats for Google Earth/Maps, Excel, Numbers, Calc, ArcGIS, After Effects, Kinomap, and more mapping and data software. Interact with data graphs and GPS maps of the video, filter out bad data and compute new streams. Merge the data of consecutive videos quickly for data-intensive analysis workflows.

Convert data from GoPro, Insta360, DJI & more to professional data formats

Data collection with GoPro cameras

GoPro cameras record high frequency GPS and IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) data

GoPro telemetry

GoPro cameras (HERO5 Black to HERO13 Black, except 12) record high frequency data from multiple sensors alongside the video. Most importantly:

  • GPS (10-18 Hz): Latitude, longitude, altitude and computed speed (2D and 3D)
  • Accelerometer (~200 Hz): X, Y and Z axes
  • Gyroscope (~400 Hz): X, Y and Z axes

With the right software tools, these data streams can replace data collection systems orders of magnitude more expensive.

External resources

Third party companies and researchers have validated the use of GoPros for accident reconstruction.

Necessary software

  • Telemetry Extractor can read the sensor data from original GoPro video files (and many other cameras), visualize it alongside the video and convert it to a wide range of formats: GPX, CSV, JSON...
  • Telemetry Overlay can display hundreds of customizable metrics on the video itself, and is also compatible with many more data formats, including VBOX.

Each product has a range of tutorials and documentation.

More capabilities

Telemetry Extractor and Telemetry Overlay enable many more use cases than extracting and visualizing the data.

  • Files extracted with Telemetry Extractor can be integrated with GIS (Geographic Information System), Google Earth and many more professional software packages
  • Telemetry Overlay can import and sync data from multiple formats, like GPX, CSV, KML, VBOX, NMEA...
  • Telemetry Overlay has preset layouts for multiple activities, including crash analysis, circuit motorsports, road motorspors...
