Self hosted trail mapping and GPS tracking with Wanderer

@selfhosted

I deployed an instance of Wanderer and defined a route in preparation for my upcoming trip to The Great Smokey Mountains National Park next week. This service uses #ActivityPub but I haven't been able to follow my account from #Mastodon yet... Even so I'm glad to add this to my #selfhosted arsenal. I will be live streaming on #Owncast during my hike, and I'll also edit the footage for #PeerTube.

I collect GPS tracks (whenever I go somewhere I haven't been, hiking included), and I also use wanderer for basic editing.

However, Wanderer has been trouble to upgrade and recently I've decided to just back up my Comaps tracks and export individual ones for editing on something like https://gpx.studio/. What I really need is a local version of comaps for big-screen visualization and planning.

How is Wanderer helping you?

    I had planned my backpacking trip using Alltrails, but found Wanderer was easy to deploy and then export/import the GPX track over to the self-hosted platform. I have been making travel videos that I share on PeerTube, so it is cool to be able to share my hiking trails in the same ecosystem. I may invite a few friends to have accounts on the platform as well.
