I'd suggest anything with an hdop less than the distance to the nearest road would be a good way to do it. That way, all points that are added represent missing or inaccurate data. If there is a road that is missing from the db and has only been driven down a few times by the fleet, it's useful to know it's there, even if the hdop is large. If there is a popular road, it's not worth keeping tracklogs of going down it unless they are more accurate than the road in the database, so that someone could use it to make fine adjustments to the position of the road.
