Usage

Generate Interactive Map Report

python3 MapTileParser.py /path/to/MapTiles.sqlitedb

This creates map_tiles_report.html in your current directory with:

-Interactive satellite map showing decoded tile locations

-Searchable table of all tiles with timestamps

-Place names, coordinates, and metadata

-JPEGs or recovered tile images

Specify Output Location

python3 MapTileParser.py /path/to/MapTiles.sqlitedb -o /output/report.html

Export Detailed Text Files

For manual review of raw tile data

python3 MapTileParser.py /path/to/MapTiles.sqlitedb --export-text ./text_output/

This creates individual text files for each tile with:

-Decoded coordinates and accuracy estimates

-Complete place names and POI data

-All embedded timestamps

-Raw section data in readable format

-Traffic and environmental data (when present, but its pretty useless TBH)
