Hey everyone!
I’m excited to introduce Reitti, a location tracking and analysis application designed to help you gain insights about your movement patterns and significant places—all while keeping your data private on your own server.
Core Capabilities:
- Visit Tracking: Automatically recognizes and categorizes the places where you spend time, using customizable detection algorithms
- Trip Analysis: Analyzes your movements between locations to understand how you travel whether by walking, cycling, or driving
- Interactive Timeline: Visualizes all your past activities on an interactive timeline with map and list views that show visit duration, transport method, and distance traveled
Photo Integration:
- Connect your self-hosted Immich photo server to seamlessly display photos taken at specific locations right within Reitti’s timeline. The interactive photo viewer lets you browse galleries for each place.
Data Import Options:
- Multiple Formats Supported: Reitti can import existing location data from GPX, GeoJSON, and Google Takeout (JSON) backups
- (Near) Real-time Updates: Automatically receive location info via mobile apps like OwnTracks, GPSLogger or our REST API
Customization:
- Multi-geocoding Services: Configurable options to convert coordinates to human-readable addresses using providers like Nominatim
- User Profiles: Customize individual display names, password management, and API token security under your own control
Self-hosting:
- Reitti is designed to be deployed on your own infrastructure using Docker containers. We provide configuration templates to set up linked services like PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ and Redis that keep all your location data private.
Reitti is still early in development but has already developed extensive capabilities. I’d love to hear your feedback and answer any questions to tailor Reitti to meet the community’s needs.
Hope this sparks some interest!

This is a bit of a long shot. Does this work with tracking devices? I’m looking for a degoogled way to track my cat and somebody linked me here.
Greetings, @[email protected], that sounds like a truly wonderful idea, and as a fellow cat owner, it brings me great joy to hear about it. 😻
In fact, I have recently changed the analysis of data, which is now performed in near real-time as soon as new data becomes available. I am currently working on the functionality to display multiple users (or, in your case, Pandora) on the map, which should be beneficial to your idea.
Now, the primary question is, how can we integrate the data from the tracker into Reitti. Thats something I have no idea at the moment. Do you have any Infos about that?
I’m not very IT savy so I’m not sure if I have anything to contribute. In general there’s various trackers on the market. Some use GPS, some use Bluetooth and some use radio. All of them have respective proprietary apps. Maybe looking into these apps could give some insight?
The Nut tracker (GPS) is only 15 € and I can at least open the app on my degoogled phone.
Someone would need to get that data out of the app. Either as GPX or some other format. I do not think these devices are able to send the position to some configurable endpoint. A quick search for nut tracker and home assistant does not yield any reasonable results.
I think we are out of luck at that point. But maybe someone knows about a more open tracker device which could be configured.
What’s the difference from Dawarich, if I may ask? Beside from a better name :)
Thanks :) As a German I really like the name Dawarich. First it sound really nice for me but also that “Da war ich” means “There have i been” in german makes, at least for me, an awesome project name.
Take this with a grain of salt because I have no idea what the plans are for Dawarich or have ever been and this is solely based on my external view. For me the main differences are:
- visits and trips are our main data, everything else is just the way to calculate them. For Dawarich it looks to me, that it is the other way around. It displays all the location data in good way with the heatmap and so on but visits or places seems so tacked on. This should not be an offense against it. I actually still have an instance running and it was the main pushing point to finally start working on Reitti.
- the sleek UI but this depends on your taste
In the end, they are not that far off. Maybe a matter of taste.
Maybe slightly off-topic, but how did you end up with the name “reitti”? You say you’re German - do you have some sort of tie to the Finnish language?
Oh, i had the idea in mind what i want to create and than it was a matter of a couple of Google queries but in the end one of the LLM suggested a list of different names in foreign languages and reitti somehow sticked 😊
Thanks for the reply! I will give it a go :)
The word dawarich does not produce a polite sound in my main language, meant no offense to the project :)
Is there any way of forcing it to rebuild places and trips? Somewhere along the line, most of mine disappeared. It’s still building new ones just fine as GPS logger adds real time data, but most of my historical stuff is gone.
The actual data is there, and it shows up fine on the maps for each day, but the places/trips/stats etc are mostly empty.
I can’t see anything in the logs that might explain it
If you are running Reitti with Docker, you can set the environment variable DANGEROUS_LIFE to true. This will enable a new section in the Settings. There, you can use the button ‘Clear and Reprocess’. This will delete all visits and trips and set all raw data points to unprocessed. During the next run, everything will be recalculated. In that settings section, you could also press the ‘Start Processing’ button if you don’t want to wait. Make sure to wait until the success message appears. It can take a while until all data is deleted and switched to unprocessed.
Fuck yeah this is awesome! The detail of Immich integration is just the icing on top of an awesome cake!
How demanding is it on server resources? Am I likely to be able to run it on an old Raspberry Pi that’s also running a couple of other relatively light tasks? How much storage does it end up using over time? I’m probably going to try and get it running either on my Pi or my Synology NAS, though the latter has had issues with Docker containers in the past depending on the container’s dependencies…
