The quality of your data. If your data points are highly accurate, then it makes sense to respect them as much as possible, and some form of interpolation would be appropriate. On the other hand, if you expect some uniform random noise to be associated with the data, then it makes sense to pay more attention to local averages, to "smooth" it out. In this case an approximation scheme is more appropriate.
