Question: Diluting series of values

Question:Diluting series of values

Hello everyone !

I have several values loaded into Maple as a matrix from a .txt file (output of my measurement).

I measured power in dependence on time.

Here is an example of my txt file in which the first column represents the time and the second column represents the force:

29.04 997.54
29.06 998.83
29.08 999.79
29.10 1000.76
29.12 1001.72
29.14 1003.01
29.16 1003.81
29.18 1004.94

From 3624 values I need to get specific amount of values, lets say 3000, while keeping the course. We could call it a dilution I guess.

Here is a simple illustration of the problem:

So I am asking you to help me find out some function to dilute measured values while keeping the curve.

I will be grateful for any advice.
