Since Google Maps started supporting their Timeline app only on
cellphones, not online, I have downloaded to my MacBook Pro the .json
files with all the Timeline data.

I would like recommendations for OS X software to display that data.
Preferably something that

(1) Does a good job of rendering.

(2) Has, itself, a geographical database, so that it can ...

(3) ... do "snap to" for roads and sidewalks (both of which Google Maps
used to do) and for buses, trolleys, and trains (which Google Maps never
did.)

All advice gratefully welcomed.
