I propose implementing helper functions to load/save/update track functions.

This will simplify any changes to storage schemas in the future, I am interested in looking into storage using the geospatial extensions in MYSQL. This is a major initiative that will very much depend on the GIS development within Drupal in general. I am watching the landscape left by the lack of development on Geofield (http://drupal.org/project/geofield) which provided a viable base for development along these lines in Drupal 6.

This will simplify any other changes to storage schema.

Development of modules that wish to utilise Trackfield data, Trackfield Graph and Trackfield Map being the obvious ones, will be simplified using helper functions to load data.
