💡 Feature Request

Welcome to the OSMNxMapping feature request hub! 🎉

Hey there, before you jump in, take a quick sec to check out the
important stuff below—it’ll help us keep the magic flowing smoothly.

Important

Before you proceed, please confirm the following:

• I’ve checked the API docs and confirmed this feature doesn’t already exist (no duplicates, please!).

Describe the Feature Request

While the imputer and filter submodules of the preprocessing module are extremely significant and useful, others may be added. For example, a module that smooths out small noise in latitude and longitude data (like from GPS) by rounding or averaging coordinates a bit.

To think beyond, some algorithms from the literature could therefore here be welcomed to be smoothing things out in a more advanced manner.

Describe Preferred Solution

Development of a Coordinate Noise Reducer submodule.
