I had a similar problem. By reading the code I understood that gottengeography requires a gpx file with tracks. Ie, you must have trkseg and trkpt tags instead of wpt tags.

My input is my Google location history converted by location_history_json_converter.py. I need to use the gpxtracks format instead of plain gpx. With that gottengeography works like a charm.

Can you help with this problem?

Provide an answer of your own, or ask Fernando for more information if necessary.
