Obviously it isnt as leet as having a program to do it automatically, but with it you can use the raw data to make your own calculations on improvement and progress. </p> Why not just enter in the information into an excel spreadsheet?

You could create layer maps that show your routes over the years and the temporal shift between them to correlate with a performance graph. </p> <p> Only problem is GIS software costs upwards of $20,000. :p i think youd be better off buying a stripped down IBM laptop. ;) </p> You could use GIS software to map your data points and organize them by other relevant variables.
