How do clubs actually use GPS data beyond raw numbers?

I’ve noticed a lot of teams collect GPS data but mainly use total distance, top speed and sprint counts.

I’m curious how clubs/coaches currently handle:

  • fatigue monitoring
  • workload interpretation
  • acceleration/deceleration analysis
  • return-to-play decisions
  • contextualizing match vs training loads

Do most teams actually interpret this deeply, or is GPS still mostly used for surface-level metrics?

I’m exploring a service focused on football-specific GPS interpretation rather than just exporting numbers, and I’d genuinely like to understand how people currently approach this.
