Livetrack.io fitted perfectly to IpBike. I don t know any other application appart from Garmin connect mobile which would be suitable for a live-tracking service.
There is another live-streaming service available now from Dave Does Demos called IoT streaming:

A solution like Dave Does Demos looks promising.
Disadvantages of IoT streaming: :
- It only works with newer GARMIN watches
- fee necessary for Microsoft Azure Cloud service
- software developement is necessary in the Microsoft Azure Cloud platform
- no GPS
I first contacted Nils Knielings about the subject of MATLAB and livetrack.io. I asked him whether it was possible to use livetrack.io for streaming to MATLAB.
He answered me that he does not know MATLAB, but that this should work.
I then started a post in the THIS IS ANT FORUM:
https://www.thisisant.com/forum/viewthread/7074/
Nils Knielings is founder of the organization livetrack.io. He stopped livetrack.io as a reaction on my posts in the THIS IS ANT forum, I suppose.
-
I asked in the forum, to bring livetrack.io back, but there was no reaction
-
I contacted Nils Knielings by e-mail for a solution of this problem, but there was no reaction
-
I asked Nils Knielings whether he could integrate livetrack.io into VELO HERO, and I told him I would be ready to pay the abo for VELO HERO when he integrated livetrack.io in VELO HERO. But he answered me, that he had no plans to do that.
-
I wrote an issue on GITHUB about solving the problem of closing the site livetrack.io. After I wrote that issue it suddenly was not possible to write issues anymore on Cyclenerd (Nils)GitHub anymore, and my issue was gone.
-
Nils Knielings livetrack.io, or something similar to that service, would be great as a project for livetracking and also to stream
sensor data to MATLAB -
In the configuration of livetracking.io which I tested, when it was still running, every MATLAB user would have been able to stream over his service to MATLAB with IpBike, I suppose.
I don t know the reason why Nils Knielings stopped livetrack.io.
-
Reasons could be that he did not wanted that MATLAB users stream over his service.
-
That the service was not designed for Matlab users
-
that he had no time for developement
-
or other reasons

In the description of livetracking.io Nils Knieling mentioned that developers are welcome. . https://forums.garmin.com/developer/connect-iq/f/discussion/209486/build-new-livetracking-io-service-form-old-livetracking-io-components
. The domain name LiveTracking.io is for sale now:
https://livetracking.io/de-de .
Nils Knielings Github, developer of LiveTracking.io :
Here is the definition for "nerd" google translate gave to me
"a foolish or contemptible person who lacks social skills or is boringly studious"
@Cyclenerd: Everybody is free to choose his own nick name on his Github account. But me personally, I would not choose "nerd" as part of my nick name on my Github account.
. .
Niels Knieling has now a new project "livetrack.io"
. .
https://github.com/livetracking
. .
maybe a "Data Nerd" tries to deal with Niels?
. .
If Niels does not want to, the software is still be open source:
. .
https://livetracking.nkn-it.de/
. .
Live Tracking, Live tracking for data nerds is available again, but the domain LiveTracking.io has been sold, and now it is only available for food manufacturers:
. .
. .
therefore, a new domain is needed, which is supported by ipBike.
