Hey, I’m currently degoogling and I’m migrating from Google Maps to Organic Maps

I have a link to shared list of ~200 google pins and I would like to export them to the file so I can import in OM 😄

What I found on the internet is only Google route exporter but there’s no script or tool to export shared list of pins

Do you have any ideas?

It’s not open source, but I like Magic Earth.

But that’s just a maps app right? I’m looking for a tool that would export shared list of pins for me

Ah, it’s a navigation app. I misunderstood what you needed.

Is this list currently included as one of your own saved lists on Google Maps? If so, it might be obtainable through Google Takeout. If not, have a look there anyway because I don’t know what else might be obtainable from there.

I’m also interested in a solution to this. Can ChatGPT somehow help you parse the information from Google Takeout into a method which is importable into Open Maps?

I wrote my own script that extract all needed info from saved google page html, and then converts it to GPX file

I would try to finish it very soon and I can share it with you!
