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

          @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.

          🔺Vertical All Black

          ex:
          Ambit2 Black
          Ambit3 Peak Sapphire
          Spartan Ultra Stealth Titanium
          S9B All Black
          Ocean All Black (for testing only)

            @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.

              @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.

                @isazi You need to zoom in on that place.

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

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

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

                                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.

                                    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.

                                      @mff73 No, it’s not really a Sport Tracker problem. There really is a GPS problem 🙂

                                          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.

                                            Maybe I’m a stickler, but there’s a problem here.

                                            Or maybe not, but you can always contact support
