What is the JR West Osaka Loop Line?
The Osaka Loop Line is a railway line of JR West that runs through the city of Osaka, with a total length of about 22.3km. As of December 2022, the Osaka Loop Line is celebrating its 60th anniversary.
I created a video using the Osaka Loop Line as a subject for understanding Google Earth and practicing video editing. There are versions 1 to 3. All of them are the same quality, but please take a look.

Rail car
The 323 series, introduced in 2016, is used on the Osaka Loop Line.
The 323 series is a new type of vehicle introduced for the Osaka Loop Line and Sakurajima Line, replacing the 103 series and 201 series, which are four-door commuter trains of the Japanese National Railways.
In the 323 series, it was changed to a 3-door car. Until now, the trains used on the Kansai Airport Rapid Service and the Yamatoji Rapid Service were 3-door trains, making it difficult to install platform doors. By unifying the 323 series to 3-door cars, platform doors will be installed at some stations.

Acquire GPS data while actually riding. There are places where GPS is lacking, such as the smartphone is sleeping.

Since I learned to manually correct the GPS data, there are no gaps or shortages.

Added title and description. However, there are places where motion tracking does not work well and it behaves strangely. Reflection on uploading without checking
