Dear all, I currently have access to 2 years, 20,000 taxi vehicles GPS trace (30sec interval) of a large city in China. The OSM data quality of that city is really bad. But uploading the raw GPS trace might have legal issues. Is it possible to process the data to roads before I upload to OSM?

well, I have proposed a GSoC project which includes the functionality of of all that Martin has mentioned, and much more. This would automatically take GPS traces and give you a render-able .OSM data file. The project would be capable of doing much more than just this (it takes care of cancelling

Hi Martin, Thank you for your comments. Although 30 seconds are large interval, but when I aggregate all data in a period from 20,000 vehicles, the trajectory is very dense, and cover almost all the roads. For legal issue, I will investigate that. But definitely I am not going to upload the

That's an impressive amount of data. I kept thinking what can't I do with so much data. Your data not only identifies the road but also the traffic density of the roads I.e. which roads are used frequently, which are the major roads. In osm, classifying the roads into different category like
