Does anyone (@opatut) have a sample file which is affected by the GPS noise during a pause?
While testing a first implementation, I noticed that the files I used seem not to be affected. Indeed, there seems to be already a filter in action (on the GPS device?) which does the job well at the first glance - see the example below.
Or do we need additional filtering?

Since a while we tell the GPS Module that it should use the pedestrian profile for plausibility checks and filtering of movements. Likely this is what you observe.
From the spec: Pedestrian Applications with low acceleration and speed, e.g. how a pedestrian would move. Low acceleration assumed. MAX Altitude [m]: 9000, MAX Velocity [m/s]: 30, MAX Vertical Velocity [m/s]: 20, Sanity check type: Altitude and Velocity, Max Position Deviation: Small
Sometimes I leave my device recording while I go into a store or similar.
It would be nice if we had some way of detecting this, because the GPS jitters around in the place I stopped (due to inaccuracy), and that accumulates a lot of incorrect mileage on the track that I don't like in the statistics.
Probably some moving window
distance traveled/time
formula could detect this, find the center of the points inside that timeframe, and clip everything from the entry to the exit of a radius around that point. This can become incredibly smart, but somethin stupid might do the trick for starters.
