It sounds like you are working on GPS Breadcrumbing. If you take a snapshot of Latitude, Longitude (optionally Altitude) at defined time intervals during your trip you will be able to calculate Bearing, Velocity between points and distance of each point to a fixed other location using the handy functions built into the Location class......assuming that you just need distances calculated 'as the crow flies' rather than directional information.
Personally I'd store it in a JSON array because the information is sequential in nature so a SQL database may be overkill. So.....search the web for GPS and Breadcrumbing, look into the Android Location class and learn how to use JSON. Does that help?
