Description:

Dear Sirs,Since a couple of weeks I'm using this data field.I've observed a deviation between the gain/loss height of 124 meters. The track is the same, the maximun and minimun elevation the same, but the gain elevation is 125 meters more when I've used this data field.Do you have any idea what could be the reason?Regards,Fernando Alvarez

Thank you for the files. I can determine that there was a difference in the data collected, and therefore that would show the difference in the elevation gain data you see. The Data Field, under the design by Garmin, is not allowed to change the data recorded by your watch, but to only use the Data. The Grade is calculated from your elevation and distance, and will be provided by the watch as you move. Any differences would be based on what the watch captured, which can be changed by GPS readings caused by weather or how your watch is covered by clothes. I am able to conclude that the Data Field has not caused the difference in the readings, as it can not change the elevation gain recorded.
