Subject: Mysterious GPS traces
To: talk-ca at openstreetmap.org
Hi everyone,
Not sure if this is the best forum for this question, but I couldn't find
anything related in the Wiki or OpenStreetMap Help.
I've been trying to familiarize myself with various features of OSM
editors. While puttering about in the ID editor, I've stumbled upon a mess
of very short and apparently unusable GPS traces in a small area of a
remote town (Saint-Félicien) with little local OSM activity (see attached
screen grab - it looks like a game of mikado). It looks somewhat unlikely
they made by locals, what with the straightness, the going through
buildings and all.
I'm wondering whether its possible to find out where those came from, if
they can possibly have any use and whether there is some sort of process to
remove bad GPS traces (or do they just ccumulate ad vitam aeternam)?
Thanks, and happy Labor Day!
Loïc
