What are the Preferred Settings for GoPro 8 for Bicycle Ride

I don’t use the mapillary app. My workflow is:

  1. Adjust the time settings with the QR control app
  2. shooting timelapse pics with the gopro,while recording the gps track with osmand on my android mobile.
  3. After riding I geo reference all photos with Javawa Fotogeotag.
  4. Then I’ll check the exact location of all photos on JOSM (Java Openstreetmap editor) and in the meantime improve Openstreetmap with the images I’ve shot.
  5. Sometimes I reallign the photo locations if the GPS signal is too way off.
  6. Sometimes it happens that the date stamps of my gopro are completely messed up and then I have to use exiftool to correct the DateTimeOriginal stamp and georeference the images again (step 3).
  7. If everything is done, I use the webuploader to submit the images to mapillary

Forgot to mention, if you haven’t got a remote control, you can switch on voice command to remotely turn on/off the camera and start/stop taking timelapse pictures.
