Trips / Routes

Hello,

just a question of comprehension.
When configuring reports of my tracker, "route" showns all positions the tracker sent (actually every five seconds), and trips are calculated by traccar, right?
I was wondering, that I had not included "report.trip.minimalTripDuration" and "report.trip.minimalTripDistance" in my config, and there are trips from about 0.26km, but on the next day I used the tracker for about 600m and there was no trip in the reports.

I included after that in the config file:

<entry key='report.trip.minimalTripDuration'>60</entry>
<entry key='report.trip.minimalTripDistance'>100</entry>

are these the right keys to include?

I just want to record even short "trips" when working with the dogs.

Best regards,
Elwood

I think default limit is as per below-

distance = 500 meters.
duration = 300 seconds

Trips are mostly designed to work with vehicles. I'm not sure how got it would work for really short trips, but you can try.

Thank you lot.

The entries I included overwrite the default values 500 meters / 300 seconds?
I'll figure it out this weekend on next training.

Other question: When does Traccar "build" a trip out of a route or many logging events?
Actually I start up the tracker, wait for fixed position, walk..., shut off the tracker.
Sometimes there is a trip "computed", sometimes not.

Cheers,
Elwood

There is documentation explaining how it works:

Hi Anton,

seems that Traccar does not recognise that the trip has ended.
Stopping postition was between high buildings with lack of GPS signals / drifting postition.

Many thanks again.

Cheers,
Elwood
