"textContent": "A method for determining the path along which a mobile device has travelled based on a plurality of position measurements of said mobile device, wherein each position measurement has associated a measurement time at which said measurement was made and a corresponding measurement accuracy, said method comprising: a) Selecting among said plurality of position measurements two position measurements, one as starting point and one as end point of said path; b) selecting a position measurement among the position measurements which with respect to its measurement time lies between said selected starting point and said selected endpoint as a candidate for an third point of said path, said selection of said candidate being made such that a position measurement having a higher measurement accuracy is preferred over a position measurement having a lower accuracy; c) performing a correction of the measured coordinates of said candidate such that the coordinates are moved towards the connecting line between said starting point and said endpoint to obtain corrected coordinates of said candidate; d) choosing the corrected coordinates as the actual third point of said path.",
