what do you mean here? Do you suggest using line segments
instead of points in my records or something else?

Sorry Alexander, I have to confess here and now that I'm not familiar with GPS data. My presumption was that it was represented as something like latitude, longitude (,alitutde?, others?), and that while those would surely hash nicely with md5 I thought you would be loosing the inherent information of the position.
