Import Google Takeout Saved places #66
Description
Activity
Thanks for the suggestion. Yes it would be nice! Could you provide an example for both those types of files?
Hej @eneiluj
here is a sample JSON file as I get it from the Takeout export of Google Maps. I'm not sure about the other part @smihael mentioned (Google Saved places) and can't check since I've probably not used that feature...
Hope this helps, I'm really looking forward to testing a first release version of this. Thanks for all the great work!

It's a bit trickier since coordinates should be fetched from the url.

I'd also appreciate this, I'm trying to move away from Google entirely.

on Mar 31, 2020 Does this only work for the JSON file? Does anyone know of a solution for the CSV file?
Reacted by KlaasFor anything that comes across this, I have come up with a solution for the CSV import: https://github.com/akvadrako/json2kml

It would be nice to have an option to import from Google Saved places (csv) and Google Maps Starred places (json) files that you get from Google Takeout.
