divide routes in Open Street Maps on certain length

I am never was working with any Map SDK. Now I am going to develop a Map based application. I would like use OpenStreetMap for this development. The are 2 main questions which I was trying to get answer: !. Is it possible to divide a route on parts of certain distance? Let say generated route is about 1500 miles. I would like to divide it (get coordinates) on segments of 500 miles each. 2. Is it possible to divide each part on tails of predefined length and width? I appreciate any help
