Here's what I am missing to be able to use traccar for my needs:

The search/playback function must get a big improvement of it's usability. Right now it is very complicated to get an overview of information, where, when and how long for example a tracked car had been during a day.

After defining the search parameters (device, start- & end-time), the user should get an easy to read map view of the selected parameters. For the traveled route (track) there should be a line, and within the same map, on this line, there should be markers at every place the car has stopped (this information can either be taken from the ignition-status for devices that support this feature, or if not, a globally defined value of a time period without changes can be used). A click on a marker will show details of that particular stop (time of arrival & departue, duration).

Here's a screenshot of a commercial software where this issue has been solved very good: tracker

Giving this information in a graphical way like this is not only important for easier understanding by the user, but it's also required when you wanna use the GPS tracking as evidence where you have to print the search-results on paper.

I use https://github.com/hallahan/LeafletPlayback for basic reports.

oliv3 commented 6 years ago

Could do pretty much anything in Traccar, would be nice for reports.

LittleNo commented 6 years ago

looks pretty, something like this should be implemented in traccar

netluca1 commented 5 years ago

hi I agree, it is very useful, it would be interesting to integrate it. @ oliv3 as you say are you using https://github.com/hallahan/LeafletPlayback via external app? you can integrate it in Traccar @tananaev what do you think? is there a plan x integration?

oliv3 commented 5 years ago

@netluca1 Yes, I use it in other (external) applications, unrelated to Traccar. But integrating it should be pretty straight-forward.

netluca1 commented 5 years ago

hi @oliv3 you can integrate it in the traccar would complete the functionality of the traccar.

oliv3 commented 5 years ago

I'll let that to others.
