Tutorial: Using only GoPro for data analysis

Posted on by

While RaceChrono cannot connect to the GoPro’s GPS while “live recording”, you can import the data embedded in to the video files afterwards. You’ll only need a GoPro that has a build-in GPS.

  1. Record a video of your on your GoPro. Make sure your GPS is turned on. You will not need RaceChrono before next step.
  2. Import the GoPro files from “RaceChrono > top menu > Import”, and use the “GoPro” import type. Easiest is to use a memory card reader, and transfer import the files directly from it. Make sure to import all the video files related to the one session at one go.
  3. A session is created, which has your video files linked to it. You can now analyse and export the session just like any other session.
