Most recent GoPro cameras include GPS and sensor data: HERO13 Black, HERO11 Black, HERO10 Black, HERO9 Black, HERO8 Black, Max, HERO7 Black, HERO6 Black, HERO5 Black, Fusion, HERO7 Silver.
The GPS data is only available when the setting is activated (look for it in the Regional Settings of the camera) and the recording is done in good signal conditions: a clear view of the sky, with no obstacles and never upside down. Turn on the camera with the Power button (not the Record one) and wait for a GPS lock before recording so the camera can find the GPS satellites.
The HERO4 Black & Silver, HERO5 Session & Black, HERO6 Black, and probably HERO7 models can record basic fitness data (speed, altitude, heart rate) if connected to a compatible Polar watch (V800, and maybe M600 and H10). Enable "Read extra streams" in the general settings to access these.
Telemetry Overlay supports most video formats and dozens of embedded and external data formats.
Gauges can be customized to a great extent, but presets and defaults can make the user experience extremely easy.
Map and satellite imagery is available for representing GPS data.
Export formats for both professional and social use are available.
Lots of documentation, tutorials and an active community help achieve great results.
Telemetry Extractor can convert camera metadata (and other sources) to multiple professional data file formats, like GPX, CSV, KML, JSON, MGJSON...
This enables integration with software packages like Google Maps, Google Earth, Google Street View, Excel, Numbers, Google Sheets (and other spreadsheet programs), ArcGIS (and other mapping software), programming languages, Adobe After Effects, Kinomap, fitness websites and much more.
In addition to the raw recorded data, it can compute new streams by processing the existing data, like distance, bearing, or slope from GPS.
The data is presented in a visual and interactive way. You can click on customizable maps and charts to move the video to that position.
Some other models have sensor data (Accelerometer, Gyroscope...) but no GPS: HERO12, HERO (2024), HERO11 Mini, HERO10 Black Bones, HERO5 Session and HERO7 White.
Other streams are only available in some models and modes. For example, Orientation data is only available in the HERO8 and newer cameras (Max, HERO9...) and not in all recording modes, so gauges like some Lean Angle options, Pitch Angle or Heading won't be available for previous models. Also, Orientation heading values are not absolute, so applying an offset may be necessary.

Availability may vary between devices and recording conditions.
Actual availability will depend on the hardware used, recording mode, and conditions. Some of these streams are native and some will be computed, with varying degrees of accuracy. Streams not listed here will also be available in some cases.

Warning: Only for the old desktop version (pre-2024) of GoPro Quik! GoPro GPS not working? This tool will modify your videos to enable the GPS performance stickers or "gauges" in the old GoPro Quik, as long as there is some GPS signal to be "amplified". Test your files with Telemetry Lite for GoPro to know if you can expect a good result. This will not improve the quality of your GPS data, but it will force GoPro Quik to display it. | Learn more
