Does anybody have advice for software or websites that you can simply upload GPS and altitude data to create a 3D animation of an animal's flight path? I'm looking for something similar to ayvri, which is shutting down. I thought I saw a discussion post about this recently but can't find it now, I'm also curious if this is something you can do on Google Earth Pro or related softwares? Thanks!

You could probably use Cesium
If you use also programming there are interfaces for Javascript, Python or R

MovingPandas allows you to do interesting visualizations and movement analysis. There are some great documentation that would allow you to turn your GPS data into trajectories and show them on various base maps.

If you are able to transform it to KML, potentially you can use any software for visualize drone flight data, paraglading software, runners online sharing apps, etc...
Here a starting research point:

Hi Maggie!
I have used Google Earth Pro for quick and dirty animation of movements of muskoxen.
I prepared .gpx file with the online and free service https://www.gpsvisualizer.com/
GPS Visualizer
GPS Visualizer is a free utility that creates customizable maps and profiles from GPS data (tracklogs & waypoints), addresses, or coordinates.
based on .csv files of the track logs and simply "dumped" these in Google Earth Pro.
I then simply did screen recordings of the animated playback playing a bit with the time scale to adjust speed.
I am not sure if it would work as good for "3D flight tracks" though.
Cheers,
Lars
