# A map and gauges for your action-camera videos MAPu takes the GPS data from your camera or a data file, puts speed, altitude, heading, a moving map and a 3D vehicle on the video, and renders the finished film. Everything happens on your computer. [Download — MAPu 0.13.1](https://mapu.hu/en/download.html) [What it does](https://mapu.hu/en/features.html) Free · Windows 10 / 11, 64-bit · 0.13.1 · Early access ![The MAPu window: the widget gallery as cards on the left, a GoPro video preview with speed, altitude, distance, clock, climb, heading and G-force widgets and a map in the middle, the selected map's properties (zoom, style, colours) on the right.](https://mapu.hu/img/en/ui-editor-light-800.webp) - **74** widgets - **13** widget categories - **6** camera sources in the video - **11** data file formats ## What it does ### Map and 3D - **A moving map** — with streets, street names, the route so far and your position, frame by frame; it can turn with your heading. - **Snap to road** — a position that GPS noise puts beside the road goes onto the road, with an adjustable tolerance. - **3D map** — with terrain and 3D buildings. - **3D vehicle on the map** — the vehicle's 3D model drives on the real map, with the light of the recording's time. - **Live 3D vehicle** — it steers, leans, dips under braking and rides on its springs — from the recording's real data. - **Built-in vehicles** — Car, Motorbike, Bicycle, E-scooter, with a colour picker; your own 3D model (.glb) can be loaded too. ### Widgets and editor - **74 widgets** — in 13 categories: speed, heading, altitude, time, distance, G-force, heart rate, GPS reception, car data and "any data" building blocks. - **Drag and drop** — from the gallery onto the picture; move (hold Shift or Ctrl: only horizontally or vertically), resize from any of the four corners, and rotate with the mouse (click the selected widget once more). - **Magnetic snapping** — when moving or resizing, a widget gently snaps to the edges and centres of the other widgets, the video and the frame, with a faint guide line; it can be switched off. - **Several widgets at once** — selected together, they move and delete together, can be made the same height, aligned and spaced with equal gaps; their shared settings change together. - **Every label can be changed** — and a widget's elements (label, number, mark) can be moved or removed one by one. - **Presets** — save the layout under a name, or start from a shipped preset. - **Your own widget** — one file in your widget folder, with a documented contract; the Help explains how. ### GPS and data - **GPS from the camera** — read on its own from GoPro, Insta360, DJI and many dashcam videos. - **11 data file formats** — GPX, FIT, TCX and motorsport logs — from a watch, a bike computer or a phone. - **Several sources on one video** — with a primary and a fallback per data type, say the position from the camera and the heart rate from your watch. - **Automatic timing** — a data file is lined up with the video by its timestamps; the sync view checks it on a map and fine-tunes it. - **No made-up data** — where the source did not measure, the widget shows "--", not a number. ### Video and GPS processing - **Video processing** — stabilisation, exposure, contrast, colour, sharpening, vignette — the preview shows it live, the finished video gets the same. - **GPS processing** — drop spikes, pull a wandering position into one point while you stand still, smoothing, upsampling. - **Cutting** — trim the start, the end and parts in the middle; the widgets' data follows the cut. - **One recording, one video** — a recording split into pieces becomes one film; the rear camera can go on the picture in a small window. ### Export - **Output size** — the video's own, 4K to 720p, vertical 9:16 (Reels, Shorts, TikTok), 4:5, square or custom; the widgets follow the new frame, with a background of any colour or the blurred video around it. - **Codecs** — H.264 (AVC), H.265 (HEVC), AV1 — hardware (NVENC) encoding on NVIDIA cards, the CPU otherwise. - **Frame rate** — your choice; in-between frames for a higher rate, three ways. - **Export presets** — save the settings that work for you under a name. ### The program - **Everything on your computer** — no account, no upload, no tracking; only map tiles and the update check go over the network. - **One installer** — with ffmpeg, the map style and the fonts inside; nothing else to download. - **English and Hungarian** — light or dark, with an adjustable interface size. ## In short ![A photo of a bend on a mountain road with a motorcyclist, a winding-road sign and a 45 mph sign on the right; a round dark map with the track top left, altitude (2178 ft) below it, a needle speedometer at 45 mph and a lean indicator at 18° at the bottom.](https://mapu.hu/img/scene-moto-800.webp) ### Widgets Speed, heading, altitude, G-force, lap times, car gauges — anywhere on the picture, in your own colours.
