Graham, This makes me wonder how the Google and Apple Maps get their accuracy. When driving or walking, trying to figure out how to get to an address, it shows me walking along a street, certainly more accurate than 20meters. Yet, when I’m wondering where my wife is, and load up “Find My iphone”

Paul, Still, if there is some parameter that you want to examine that correlates to the intersections, that would influence your chart. I am suspecting you want to keep the experiment confidential, but I would need a lot more information about the source of the data and goals of the experiment t
