how to correct GPS error?

[Peter Stroi]

Hi,
is there a possibility to correct such a GPS error?

Right after start there was an error with a measurement point in france:

Would be great if somebody would have an idea to fix this.

@peter-stroi
Did your try a soft reset and sync?
Maybe you have some corrupted agps data

[Peter Stroi]

@sartoric thx for the hint. just tried it, but it’s even in the watch over 1160km

[sartoric]

@peter-stroi
Obviously what I suggested it’s a possible fix for future issues.

To modify that specific error you should edit the activity.

[Peter Stroi]

@sartoric thanks
I edited the activity, at least the data is now correct again and I do not have anymore a walk of 1100km in 5h

Hi,
I have a similar problem on my 9 Baro. I noticed that my recorded route has errors. Upon close examination, I found that this has been happening since March and only on the bike. Maybe it’s been wrong even longer, but I’ve only been on the bike in March
It’s hardly noticeable in the Suunto App . I noticed it on the Sport Tracker website (see pictures)
I’m posting a link to one activity. It happens at time 3:16:07.

Any ideas?
I have the latest firmware.

@pavlas wow, I have never seen such artifacts!

[isazi]

@pavlas are you sure you are not walking/biking around a place with very strong magnets, or GPS jammers of some kind?

[Pavlas]

@isazi Definitely not. It’s different places and always on a bike.
The Suunto App ignores these artifacts, which is why I only noticed it now.
But in the Sport Tracker web, this crazy thing pops up.

[isazi]

@pavlas it may also just a bug of the sports-tracker then. Are your statistics in SA affected? Do you see the distance and speed being crazy? If not, it is a sports-tracker issue and you should contact them.

[Pavlas]

@isazi It’s not Sport Tracker’s problem. Check the link directly.
You’ll see the jumps after 3:16:07. But they’re not plotted.

[Pavlas]

@isazi You need to zoom in on that place.

[isazi]

@pavlas I zoom and the artifacts are not there. Do you export to Strava or anywhere else also? Are they there?

[Egika]

was the recording done in one of the energy saving modes?

[Pavlas]

@isazi Yeah, the artifacts aren’t here, but the jumps are. Try moving your mouse slowly over the timeline at this point.

[Pavlas]

@egika No, only Performace mode

[isazi]

@pavlas we may need @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos to check your activity and see what is going on.

@isazi
looks more like a kandinsky than a picasso

[Pavlas]

@freeheeler Yeah, maybe

[Pavlas]

I was checking on other activities now. So the problem is with all activities But not always.
And the problem started exactly on March 1st.

[sartoric]

@pavlas
Did you already try a reset?

[Mff73]

@pavlas
as said, maybe just a Sport-tracker “bug” (which is not exptected to be SA web site).
if you look at your activity in SA, no errors.

in QS, neither,

[Pavlas]

@mff73 No, it’s not really a Sport Tracker problem. There really is a GPS problem
Try checking the times and kilometers in my link
3:16:07 - 40.86 km
3:16:34 - 41.22 km
! 3:17:01 - 40.98 km !
3:17:27 - 41.44 km

[Pavlas]

@sartoric Not yet. But there have been reboots in the last 2 updates.

[Pavlas]

SA and QS will clean up the artifacts. This is visible only in the graph.
Sport Tracker does not clean these artifacts and that is why I noticed it.
Maybe I’m a stickler, but there’s a problem here.
