Summarize GPS information in a regular grid#
This functionality of tracklib reduce the full dataset of GPS traces into a regular grid of summarized features. In each cell, n aggregated features (such as mean and standard deviation of speeds, number of traces, most frequent bearing …) are computed to produce a set of raster maps, which may be seen as a single image with n channels.
These process has been used in works presented in (1).
