Ask HN: Calculating Acceleration range from json data in Python

4 points

10 years ago

I am writing a script where i have some geojson data from a gps receiver of a bike with speed, timestamp and latlong. I have so far sorted the data using natsort, which gives the output in reverse order with the relevant timestamps.

Basically what i want to do here is trim a video (max 60 - 90 seconds) based on when the rider accelerates. So i need to get the range of timestamps which i can pass onto another script for processing of the video. Is there any formula out there for calculating acceleration which is relevant to my problem ? How can i get the range?
