    It shows negative altitude for me definitely wrong, how can I calibrate it?

        @Kai-Liu said in Calibrate altitude?:

        It shows negative altitude for me definitely wrong, how can I calibrate it?

        I have differences up to 3 m between ascent and descent. Today 820 m ascent, 817 m descent.

        I checked 20 activities and no problem so far.

        I check the altitude at the start with the S7 app and the activity mountain biking, where I can see the actual altitude. Always correct up to now. Difference to my location up to 5 m.

            @pilleus 3-5 m can be caused by an small pressure oscillation due weather change

              @jseguir it’s okay for me. Ambit 3 does have the same result at the end of the activity. S7 is very precise! 👍

                @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos yes. It got automatically fixed by the way … on my third use it is pretty accurate.

                I run near a beach and it shows 10m altitude (the real altitude should be around 5m) but I am pretty happy with the result.

                  @Bulkan yeah maybe it just need more time to collect some data. On my third use it turns accurate. Thanks
