Elevation intraday timeseries resolution

[fliebel]

Hey,

I have a web app that has intraday access, and I have a Charge 3 device with an altimeter. I see there is an elevation endpoint, but the data I get from it seems to just be floors*10. I thought this might be because the altimeter is not calibrated.

So next I took a walk with connected GPS, which shows a detailed elevation graph in the dashboard. But in the API I still only get the floors*10 data it seems.

Is there any way to access the connected GPS data through the web API?

I suspect that the units for elevation gain are feet, and one floor is considered to be 10 feet.

Hi @fliebel 

In additional to @Gondwana info, the GPS data is available for tracker recorded activities with connected GPS enabled.  In the mobile app, you should see a map of the route taken.  Querying the Get Activity TCX endpoint will return the GPS data.

Best,

Gordon
