GPS Trail Visualizer for Online Communities

Due to the rising health issues and changes in people's daily routines, people became more health conscious over the past few decades. As a result, along with the rapid growth in mobile phones and emerging activity tracking devices, lots of mobile applications were introduced to track and encourage people's daily exercise routines. Among these applications, Global Position System (GPS) technology-based applications facilitate users to visualize their jogging/running trail in a 2-dimensional view on a google map and share it with friends. This paper suggests a methodology to enhance the visualization from 2-dimensional to 3-dimensional and more realistic visual interpretation by developing a Hyperlapse video using Google Street View Images.
