Open Drone Log

Official Website: opendronelog.com

GitHub: github.com/arpanghosh8453/open-dronelog

For me, sharing drone flight logs feel risky, and I did not want to be cloud-dependent for something that can be done locally. As a developer, I wanted control back. I didn't want my coordinates, battery health, and flight paths sitting on a distant server. I wanted them on my machine, private and accessible, even if I was completely offline.

That’s why I started working on OpenDroneLog. I have opened it to the community so everyone can use it, completely free of cost, no features are behind any payment, everything from the simple theme switch to organization level multi-user management in a single instance.

Quick features:

• Privacy by Default: Built with Rust, the app is strictly local-first; your logs never leave your device/server. We offer Windows/Mac/Linux builds and Docker image for self-hosting.
• 3D flight path: Instead of flat lines, I implemented 3D flight replays, allowing you to watch your drone follow its path with live telemetry overlays.
• Flexible Export: OpenDroneLog has CSV, JSON, KML and GPX export options, and also a professional PDF report building for regulatory reporting - all for no cost to you.
• Multi-user management : OpenDroneLog Allows multiple profile, with optional password protection, making this ideal for small groups to self-host and manage their fleet. this is one of the latest feature :)
• Maintenance Tracking: Configurable thresholds with color-coded progress bars and date-based maintenance recording.
• Multi-Language Support: Full internationalization with 11 language locales (English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Chinese) and locale-aware number and date formatting.
• Smaller screen support : The front-end (web version) is now optimized for mobile viewing - making it ideal for on the go management.
• Backup & Restore: Export/import full database across desktop and Docker instances.

AGPL-3.0 open-source and free for the community both for personal and business needs.

If you believe that your flight data belongs to you, I’d love for you to check out the repo, try the Docker build on your Pi, or grab the desktop app.

Data Privacy is not a privilege, it's a right

Heyy Garmin folks, I built a little tool for anyone who collects FIT files from Garmin (or other sources) and wants decent local analysis without the usual faff.

I wanted something that kept all the raw telemetry locally, made it easy to search/filter/visualize, and didn’t require a ton of setup to run on a desktop. I am the OG developer of the Garmin-Grafana project (free and open-source), which has 1000+ users, but many people complained that they have left it because docker was too much setup for their limited tech knowlwdge

So I put together FIT Dashboard, a local-first app that stores everything in DuckDB and uses ECharts for interactive telemetry. It’s designed to handle lots of activities without feeling sluggish, and you can export CSV/GPX/JSON when you actually want to share something. No cloud, you keep full control of your data. It is not a one off FitFileViewer where you have to import a log each time you want to see it, it is a persistant local database that keeps the data in your dashboard, calculate overview of all data, and allow you to compare your own charts against each other.

It keeps the original FIT fidelity, and provides both a lightweight desktop binary and a Docker option if you prefer server-style hosting. I also tried to make importing and deduplication simple so you don’t end up with the same ride multiple times because you have files exported from different sources in different formats.

I know about Golden Cheeta, excellent piece of software, I just wanted to build something that looks a bit cleaner, less overwhelming, minimal interface, and user friendly. For professional use, that application might be superior, but I just enjoy this, and hope the community would like it too. This project is in Alpha or early beta and looking for your feedback/opinion. Feel free to comment your thoughts here.
