Hi Chris,

Thank you for your response. You got it right that I am using  point
samples of a vehicle's travel to estimate the most likely path it actually
followed along a road network. I have tried using ORSM tools earlier. The
path would have been accurate if my co-ordinates were exactly on the road
network. However, the data set that I have posses, has the co-ordinates
that are slightly away from the road network at several locations. The
figure attached with the mail shows the stated problem. The vehicle should
have taken a straight path  as can be seen that it follows a straight
route. However, the two co-ordinates in the paths are drifted away from the
road network that leads to an unrealistic movement for the vehicle. Hence,
I need some tool that can adjust such drifted co-ordinates ( probably
through some technique) as well as draw a path between all such points in a
similar fashion as the existing ORSM tool does. And, in case there is no
such tool that can do both, can you please suggest some method to overcome
the problem?
