LocoKit

A Machine Learning based location recording and activity detection framework for iOS.

Location and Motion Recording

  • Combined, simplified Core Location and Core Motion recording
  • Filtered, smoothed, and simplified location and motion data
  • Near real time stationary / moving state detection
  • Automatic energy use management, enabling all day recording
  • Automatic stopping and restarting of recording, to avoid wasteful battery use

Activity Type Detection

  • Machine Learning based activity type detection
  • Improved detection of Core Motion activity types (stationary, walking, running, cycling, automotive)
  • Distinguish between specific transport types (car, train, bus, motorcycle, airplane, boat)

Record High Level Visits and Paths

  • Optionally produce high level Path and Visit timeline items, to represent the recording session at human level. Similar to Core Location's CLVisit, but with much higher accuracy, much more detail, and with the addition of Paths (ie the trips between Visits).
  • Optionally persist your recorded samples and timeline items to a local SQL based store, for retention between sessions.

More information about timeline items can be found here

Supporting the Project

LocoKit is an LGPL licensed open source project. Its ongoing development is made possible thanks to the support of its backers on Patreon.

If you have an app that uses LocoKit and is a revenue generating product, please consider sponsoring LocoKit development, to ensure the project that your product relies on stays healthy and actively maintained.

Thanks so much for your support!

Installation

pod 'LocoKit'
pod 'LocoKit/LocalStore' # optional

Note: Include the optional LocoKit/LocalStore subspec if you would like to retain your samples and timeline items in the SQL persistent store.

High Level Recording

Record TimelineItems (Paths and Visits)

// retain a timeline manager
self.timeline = TimelineManager()

// start recording, and producing timeline items 
self.timeline.startRecording()

// observe timeline item updates
when(timeline, does: .updatedTimelineItem) { _ in
    let currentItem = timeline.currentItem

    // duration of the current Path or Visit
    print("item.duration: \(currentItem.duration)")

    // activity type of the current Path (eg walking, cycling, car)
    if let path = currentItem as? Path {
        print("path.activityType: \(path.activityType)")
    }

    // examine each of the LocomotionSamples within the Path or Visit
    for sample in currentItem.samples {
        print("sample: \(sample)")
    }
}

Low Level Recording

Record LocomotionSamples (CLLocations combined with Core Motion data)

// the recording manager singleton
let loco = LocomotionManager.highlander
// decide which Core Motion features to include
loco.recordPedometerEvents = true
loco.recordAccelerometerEvents = true
loco.recordCoreMotionActivityTypeEvents = true
// decide whether to use "sleep mode" to allow for all day recording 
loco.useLowPowerSleepModeWhileStationary = true

Note: The above settings are all on by default. The above snippets are unnecessary, and just here to show you some of the available options.

// start recording 
loco.startRecording()
// watch for updated LocomotionSamples
when(loco, does: .locomotionSampleUpdated) { _ in

    // the raw CLLocation
    print(loco.rawLocation)

    // a more usable, de-noised CLLocation
    print(loco.filteredLocation)

    // a smoothed, simplified, combined location and motion sample
    print(loco.locomotionSample())
}

Fetching TimelineItems / Samples

If you wanted to get all timeline items between the start of today and now, you might do this:

let date = Date() // some specific day
let items = store.items(
        where: "deleted = 0 AND endDate > ? AND startDate < ? ORDER BY endDate",
        arguments: [date.startOfDay, date.endOfDay])

You can also construct more complex queries, like for fetching all timeline items that overlap a certain geographic region. Or all samples of a specific activity type (eg all "car" samples). Or all timeline items that contain samples over a certain speed (eg paths containing fast driving).

Detect Activity Types

Note that if you are using a TimelineManager, activity type classifying is already handled for you by the manager, on both the sample and timeline item levels. You should only need to directly interact with clasifiers if you are either not using a TimelineManager, or are wanting to do low level processing at the sample level.

// fetch a geographically relevant classifier
let classifier = ActivityTypeClassifier(coordinate: location.coordinate)

// classify a locomotion sample
let results = classifier.classify(sample)

// get the best match activity type
let bestMatch = results.first

// print the best match type's name ("walking", "car", etc)
print(bestMatch.name)

Note: The above code snippets use SwiftNotes to make the event observing code easier to read. If you're not using SwiftNotes, your observers should be written something like this:

let noteCenter = NotificationCenter.default
let queue = OperationQueue.main 

// watch for updates
noteCenter.addObserver(forName: .locomotionSampleUpdated, object: loco, queue: queue) { _ in
    // do stuff
}

Background Location Monitoring

If you want the app to be relaunched after the user force quits, enable significant location change monitoring.
