GPS trackpoint "timout" #95

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Problem scenario
----------------
Some GPS logger don't save waypoints timebased but speed- or heading-based.
In that case, if the person takes a break in a restaurant for example, no
further waypoints are saved until he starts walking again. When taking
prictures during this break, they are not geotagged correctly because the
time difference is too big.

suggested solution
------------------
Before detecing a timeout, check the distance between the 2 sourrounding
waypoints. If it is <10m the logger was probably sitting still and didn't
save any further waypoints. This scenario should also have a timeout, but
longer. Like 1h or so.
