LR 12 - Kartenmodul - große Logs?

Hallo,

seit 2009 zeichne ich auf zahlreichen langen Reisen die Route/Logs auf.

Nun akzeptiert das LR Kartenmodul nur Logs von max. 5 MB, so auch Google Maps. Meine Logs sind schon ausgedünnt weitaus größer ; weiteres Ausdünnen macht sie sinnlos....

Könnte OpenStreetMap in Lightroom funktionieren??

Gibt es einen Workaround? Was könnte ich sonst mit meinen Logs anfangen.

LG

It's only Google Maps. 


Can you split the logs into smaller sections?

Different trips? My trips last usually at least 2 months travelling.

In the beginning, Google maps could take whole trips.  It would be tempting, to have the logs as easily accessible as the images... Now, Google crashes with larger imports into "My Places"

Do you have any idea, which program could manage larger logs and show it on a map? Maybe I could take screenshots and include it into a slideshow?

BTW I'm doing for private use, not for professional lectures.

I appreciate your help!

You can use the free GPSBabel utility to split your track log into smaller logs by date or distance:

https://www.gpsbabel.org/htmldoc-1.8.0/filter_track.html

 

It has a GUI that makes it a little bit easier to use than the command line:

Others have complained about LR's needlessly small limit of 50,000 points per track log:

Please add your constructive opinion to that feature request and be sure to click the Upvote button at the top-left and Follow at the bottom of the first post. That will make it a little more likely that Adobe will consider implementing the feature and you'll be notified when they do.
