Solution for Android location (GPS) tracking service #22

Closed davispuh closed 4 months ago

Hi,

I'm wondering if you're aware of any open source library/service that would track Android's GPS location 24/7 and send it to ThingsBoard?

Also if I were to implement such such service would it fit into this app? But I'm really hoping something like that already exists because I think it's very useful and common use case. Currently we can get such solution from Google https://www.google.com/maps/timeline but I would rather own data myself in my own infrastructure.

Hello @davispuh.

Flutter has plugins, such as https://pub.dev/packages/geolocator, that can work with GPS location. However, this is not currently implemented on ThingsBoard.
