I already have a patch here (not created a ticket on trac or it yet) to stop a user from uploading another file with the same name. Before I can go on and implement: upload an archive and only import the files that the particular user hasn't uploaded already; I would need to bash some implementation ideas from someone who has more knowledge of rails. The reason why this works, is because generally GPS devices give files a unique name based on the day or the start time of the trace. Therefore the trace name is generally unique for that particular user.
