Hi I just wanted to pipe up on this particular topic. I've recently done a lot of travelling around Crete, and there are quite a few brand new roads that need to be mapped. A lot of the roads that I travelled on, I went both ways, and as such have two trails back and forth. Is there any way to get the simplify way to work out the middle of those two lines?
