Is there a tool to compare 2 tracks to evaluate the best one, or at least to
detemine a mathematical value reppresenting the difference during all the
path? You know, I can't compare only visualizing them at the same time on a
map..

The 2 tracks are in GPX format.

Is the GPX format documented? What you need is the simplest scenario:
just add the straight line segments of each route and find which one
is the shortest, right? There is no traffic or scenic route value,
correct?
