[OSM-talk] Cleaning up GPX files

[Barnett, Phillip]

I use a Garmin Legend Cx, and I turn off GPX logging just before I switch the unit off. When I turn the unit back on, I wait until it has a good lock before I re-enable logging. Obviously this might be tricky if you're already driving, but maybe you can do something similar?

AFAIK, newer cars windscreens filter a lot of radiation, perhaps explaining why your GPS device is giving so inaccurate fixes. Try placing your device somewhere else in the dash...


¡Salud!

I am not sure but I think you can load the gpx-file in JOSM, delete
bad
points and then save again, or maybe even upload directly from JOSM.
