Stats

Yearly Stats​

Click on any year to see detailed statistics:

  • Monthly breakdown of distance and cities
  • Countries visited that year
  • Map view link for the entire year

Stats by year

Monthly Stats​

From the yearly view, click on a month to see:

  • Distance traveled that month
  • Cities and countries visited
  • Direct link to view those points on the map

Updating Stats​

Stats are calculated periodically in the background. You can also manually update them:

  1. Go to the Stats page
  2. Click Update Stats
  3. Wait for the background job to complete (usually a few minutes)

Stats are automatically recalculated every hour.

Year Recalculation​

You can recalculate statistics for a specific year:

  1. Navigate to the year's stats page
  2. Click the Recalculate button
  3. The stats for that year will be refreshed

Month Recalculation​

Similarly, individual months can be recalculated from their stats page.

Countries and Cities Modal​

Click on the countries or cities count to see a popup with:

  • Full list of countries/cities visited
  • Visit counts per location
  • Links to view on the map

Public Stats Sharing​

You can share your monthly statistics publicly with others without requiring them to log in.

Enabling Sharing​

  1. Navigate to a specific month's stats page
  2. Click the Share button
  3. Configure sharing settings:
    • Expiration: Choose when the share link expires
      • 1 hour
      • 12 hours
      • 24 hours
      • Permanent (never expires)
  4. Copy the generated share URL

The share URL uses a unique UUID for security:

https://your-dawarich-domain/shared/month/unique-uuid-here

Anyone with this link can view the statistics for that month without logging in.

What's Shared​

Public viewers can see:

  • Monthly distance traveled
  • Countries visited
  • Cities visited
  • Hexagon map visualization (if enabled)

They cannot see:

  • Your exact GPS points
  • Personal information
  • Other months' data
  • Any account details

Disabling Sharing​

To stop sharing a month's stats:

  1. Go to the month's stats page
  2. Click Share settings
  3. Toggle off or let the expiration pass

Once disabled, the share link becomes invalid.

Automatic Expiration​

Links with expiration times automatically become inactive after the set period. For permanent links, you must manually disable sharing.

API Access for Shared Stats​

When sharing is enabled, the hexagon map data can also be accessed via API:

GET /api/v1/maps/hexagons?uuid=your-share-uuid

This allows embedding the shared visualization in other applications.

Privacy Considerations​

  • Share links use unguessable UUIDs
  • Only specifically enabled data is exposed
  • Exact coordinates are never publicly shared
  • You control when sharing starts and stops
  • Expiration provides automatic privacy protection
