In case someone facing issue where they cannot see the map in the "dashboard UI", try using a Blue Worldmap node from the left-side pallet bar. There are two 'worldmap' nodes available to use. In my case, i used orange colored worldmap node similar to this video but the map didn't appear in my dashboard UI(localhost/ui). Then I used blue colored worldmap node.
Thank you for sharing this excellent tracker system. I cant wait to give it a try and learn lots from your Node-Red code. I got a huge amount from your "Working with time series data in Node Red with SQLite" video. You really do cover things well and always very detailed.
Hello. Please help with the problem. In the sqlite node, you have /home/pi/sqlite/tracker. How do I find the directory where the sql databases are located? I have a Home Assistant system on a linux large computer.
@Csongor Varga Hey your content is very good and we are working on a similar project and we need help in connecting the node red with phpliteadmin please its urgent . We are glad if you help us out ..
@@csongorvarga Hi, there is a Node-Red for Android and it has a node for GeoLocation. I am curious as to why that was not preferred over the mobile app you are using.
Great Video, but don't really understand where you defining the mobile you tracking, is it linked to your Gmail Email address, and you populate a this some where with your app password? You must have to enter some credentials . Thanks
Terrific video Csongor! Thank you for putting so much effort into your videos and your explanations. They are always interesting and helpful. I have set this up (without the Android app, so just single track) but haven't figured out how to have the map show up in the dashboard. The History choices and the track info show up but the "Map" area is blank. The Worldmap shows up in :1880/worldmap. I've tried a few variations of src="/worldmap" in the Template node, but haven't got it right just yet...
Thanks :) On the top left of the flow, there is a simple section with a comment node which says Embed the map to the dashboard. That renders the map in a ui-template that you can place wherever you like. And that map gets updated by the flow later.
@@csongorvarga Thanks Csongor! Sure enough. I think the reason the map had disappeared (I had seen it on the dashboard at least once) was because I had refreshed the dashboard a number of times and had not triggered that node again :) I look forward to you next videos!
I downloaded the apk and placed on my phone, but nothing happens when I tape on the apk. I'm sure the permissions for installing from an unknown source are set right.
I also installed phpLiteAdmin on my PI. In that admin page you can create a new database, and execute the SQL statement in the comment node. That will create the table in the database.
@@sdmilliken First you create a new database (bottom of the left navigation), once it is created, select the new database and select the SQL tab, paste and Go.
@@sdmilliken Someone reported a similar problem. The map was not showing anything, just the chart and the data list below. The issue was that there was no sufficient wifi information in the database and the code could not differentiate the tracks. In that case delete the wire from the "Generate map routes (separate track)" to the "worldmap" node, and connect a wire from the "Generate map routes (single track)" node to the "worldmap" node.
Congratulations.... I can see a lot of hours of debug and tests.....thanks for share.

Hmm but where cani READ GPS cordinates with an usb GPS connected to raspi?

please help in urgent how to connect it with phplite admin and how you have run phpliteadmin in localhost
You can follow this post: randomnerdtutorials.com/how-to-install-phpliteadmin-database-in-a-raspberry-pi/
Hello, I dont how u did it but I cannot see the worldmap in the dashboard. is it a different type of node ?
Yes, you need to install node-red-contrib-web-worldmap for it to appear as a new node type.
Can this be modifyed to compare data of a specific location and analyze it using a decision tree?
Hi, any reason you did not prefer the Android Node-Red over the mobile app, since that would also given you the geolocation?
What do you mean Android Node-Red?

Very nice, thank you for your terrific work

@@csongorvarga I can't open the world map. Tried
localhost:1880/worldmap
localhost:1880/ui/worldmap
World localhost:1880:ui/worldmap
Does not work.
I downloaded the apk and placed on my phone, but nothing happens when I tape on the apk. I'm sure the permissions for installing from an unknown source are set right.
Installed the APK Installer onto the phone. Installed just fine.
How does the tracker database get created? I see the "comment" node with the title create DB, but is there a way to get it to create?
I also installed phpLiteAdmin on my PI. In that admin page you can create a new database, and execute the SQL statement in the comment node. That will create the table in the database.
@@csongorvarga Yes, I have phpliteadmin installed as well. I'll copy the infor from the node into phpliteadmin..thanks

@@csongorvarga Database up and running. Email is sending the data back from the cell phone, but nothing is showing up on the map. Any ideas?

It would be fine if location could be requested on demand, instead of regular intervals of time or distance!
