Insta360 support within the Telemetry software

Most of the recent Insta360 cameras can record GPS data if paired with a compatible GPS-enabled remote: Ace Pro 2, One X4, Ace / Ace Pro, One X3,, Go 3, One RS, One R, One X2, One X, Pro 2, Pro. Other models may also be supported. The GPS data is recorded if the setting is enabled and a compatible device is linked: the GPS Action Remote, GPS Preview Remote, the old GPS Smart Remote, the mobile app, one of the smartwatch apps...

Additionally, accelerometer and gyroscope data are generally recorded when shooting in INSV format or Pro/FlowState stabilization. To read these streams, enable "Read accel & gyro" in the general Settings of Telemetry Overlay.

Supported gauges in Telemetry Overlay

Speedometer, GPS Path, Accelerometer, Altitude, Distance, Slope, Dynamic Map, Gyroscope, Bearing, Acceleration (GPS), Time & Date, Lap Timer, Pace, Vertical Speed, Elevation Gain, Coordinates, Altitude vs Distance, Lean Angle (2 wheel), Airspeed, Altimeter, Heading Indicator, Turn Coordinator, Vertical Speed Indicator, Longitudinal Acceleration (GPS), Acceleration (speed-based), Lateral Acceleration (GPS), Zero to Speed, Distance Timer, GPS Path + Compass, Distance Home, Sector Times, Corner Speeds, Shutter Speed, Custom, Dynamic Text, Static Title, Static Image, Export GPX and Watermark.

Availability may vary between devices and recording conditions.

Readable streams in Telemetry Extractor

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.

Date & time, Latitude, Longitude, Altitude, Speed, Bearing, Accelerometer X, Accelerometer Y, Accelerometer Z, Gyroscope X, Gyroscope Y, Gyroscope Z, Shutter Speed, Slope or grade, Accumulated distance, Accelerometer sum, Acceleration (speed-based), Vertical Velocity, and custom formulas.

If using a non-360 lens or shooting mode (4K, 1 Inch, Steadycam), note that the Insta360 app is only capable of recording the GPS data if the Pro mode (or Active HDR video) is enabled, not Basic or Quick. These modes can be changed from the camera itself (not the app) by clicking on the resolution. When using the GPS Remote, GPS data is recorded even if the Basic/Quick mode is selected. Another important limitation of the phone app is that the phone needs to have the screen on for the entire recording. Otherwise the data is not recorded correctly. For these reasons, the GPS Remote or even the smartwatch apps are recommended.

Some Insta360 models record the data to the LRV file instead of the main video. In those cases import the main video first and then the data by selecting the LRV from the Telemetry section.

More about Telemetry Extractor

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.

What a really great piece of work this app is. So easy to use and the recent update with racing in mind (laps and lean angle for bikes!) is fantastic
