Delete waypoints from specific area?

(I mean data points, not waypoints)

I want to import my Google Location history, however it's contaminated by more than one device reporting to the same account.



Is there any way to delete the location my tablet was left at? (center of the star)

    Sure, there a couple of ways.

    You could import the kml file directly into Basecamp. It will probably come in as a track or two. Highlite the track (mine was named Latitude user) and select Get info which will open a window with all the points. If you have done a show on map then as you select the point it will highlight on the map. So just highlight the relevant point and delete it.

    I am wondering if you have used multiple devices then you might get lucky and have a separate track for each device.

    Another way would be to open the track in an editor and delete the offending points there.

    The problem is there are hundreds or maybe even thousands of data-points to clean up from that one specific spot.

    Just a wild guess, and I've never done it.
    What about exporting the waypoints to a CSV and importing it into a spreadsheet (Excel)
    Than sorting the sheet.
    Select the lines with the coordinates and delete them.
