Actually, YOU gave ME an idea. I spend a lot of time developing intelligent
algorithms that generate a position and velocity for every time increment.  I
end up doing it over and over trying to avoid jerky motion.

Perhaps a much better approach is to intelligently determine a SPLINE based on
the contours of the geography.
