  • $\begingroup$ I can include the actual route data if that is helpful, but because of it's nature, it is over 2000 points. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 27, 2018 at 18:00
  • $\begingroup$ yes, please include the route and waypoints. If they are too big to fit in the question, you can share the file, or a text only Mathematica expression on pastebin or some similar service. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 27, 2018 at 18:09
  • $\begingroup$ @MarcoB, Updated for you. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 27, 2018 at 18:24
  • $\begingroup$ I was talking with a friend who works in GIS and he was able to take a GPX route, convert it to a line, and then export a new version that had route points spaced every 10 meters. That data source would effectively solve the problem since the margin of error would be +/- 5m instead of +/- 500m. Is there a way to redefine the datapoints in a similar manner in Mathematica? $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 28, 2018 at 2:12
  • $\begingroup$ That’s an interesting question. It seems essentially equivalent to your original problem though, so if we can solve one, we can probably solve the other as well. Have you seen GeoPath? I’ve been playing with it a bit, seems promising, but not really there yet. Your edited approach is interesting too. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 28, 2018 at 2:17
