Comment on [AIP] Reitti v5.3.0: Multi-Segment Trips, Spatial Coverage & FIT File Support
danielgraf@discuss.tchncs.de 1 week agoHello! If you ask me personally. I am happy with how reitti is working today. It suits my own movement patterns well enough, but everyone is different, so your mileage may certainly vary. I am improving it step by step though, so it should keep getting better over time.
On a general comparison with dawarich: I honestly do not know enough about it anymore to give you a fair assessment. I know they have a comparison on their website, but as with all of these, it is not completely correct. That is simply the nature of such comparisons, and it is also why I will not make one myself. After all, I would be hopelessly biased.
So here is my suggestion: if you have Docker and some gpx files handy (you can export them straight from dawarich), spin up an instance with docker-compose and throw the gpx files at it. See how it goes and whether it fits your needs. If it does not, no worries at all, just shut it down and never think about it again. Or maybe come back and give some feedback. 🙂
Your last suggestion was essentially my plan (compared the featureset of both a bit after posting the question) :)
The cons from the dawarich-dev were not of essence for me and your implementation looks very nice.
Maybe you can answer it:
I use GPSLogger to track my movement.
How well does Reitti work with it? Any direct experience from you or the community?

I personally mainly use GPSLogger on my phone. I had one problem with it but this is remedied in V136 of it and now it can use the HTTP File Upload which brings the battery usage down a lot. So in my experience this works really well. There is also an autoconfig button. You can open the Integrations Settings page on your phone and press the button. This will configure GPSLogger so you do not have to enter the address and the auth token by hand.
I would check the settings afterwards. I have set mine to not report anything with more than 25m accuracy. And upload the data once an hour.
Thanks man <3
Have a good one!
