MapTrack3D
A plugin for Grafana that visualizes GPS points on a 3D globe. A marker shows the position at the time when hovering over other panels on the dashboard.
Configuration
The plugin requires latitude,longitude, and optionally altitude measurements provided as floats in two/three separate fields formatted by Grafana as a "Time series".
It can be used with MySQL/MariaDB as a data source by using a querie along the lines of:
SELECT
"timestamp" as time,
lat,
lon,
alt,
FROM test_data
WHERE $__timeFilter(timestamp)
ORDER BY timestamp ASC
A demo CSV file that can be used in conjunction with CSV datasource is provided here
How to develop
If you don’t want to install Grafana on your local machine, you can use Docker.
To set up Grafana for plugin development using Docker, run the following command:
docker run -d -p 3000:3000 -v "$(pwd)"/dist:/var/lib/grafana/plugins --name=grafana grafana/grafana:7.4.3
Since Grafana only loads plugins on start-up, you need to restart the container whenever you add or remove a plugin.
docker restart grafana

Installing MapTrack3D on Grafana Cloud:
Installing plugins on a Grafana Cloud instance is a one-click install; same with updates. Cool, right?
Note that it could take up to 1 minute to see the plugin show up in your Grafana.

Installing on a local Grafana:
For local instances, plugins are installed and updated via a simple CLI command. Plugins are not updated automatically, however you will be notified when updates are available right within your Grafana.
1. Install the Panel
Use the grafana-cli tool to install MapTrack3D from the commandline:
grafana-cli plugins install
The plugin will be installed into your grafana plugins directory; the default is /var/lib/grafana/plugins. More information on the cli tool.
Alternatively, you can manually download the .zip file for your architecture below and unpack it into your grafana plugins directory.

2. Add the Panel to a Dashboard
Installed panels are available immediately in the Dashboards section in your Grafana main menu, and can be added like any other core panel in Grafana.
To see a list of installed panels, click the Plugins item in the main menu. Both core panels and installed panels will appear.
