    Hi all,
    I suppose my Suunto 7 has problems related to GPS-barometer data fusion.
    Every activity is affected by a significant altitude error. Just to give you an example, here my last activity where a climbed up on a ski slope and finally came back to the starting point.
    According to me, there is a huge error, in particular, the altitude estimation grows during the descending phase of the activity.
    Do you agree with me that there is some strange effect?

      @ilnonn0-0 Yes, it looks like your device has a problem. I guess you have already tried to restart it, is that correct?
      One thing that can interfere with the proper functioning of the barometer is the fact that the left side of the watch rubs against a glove or jacket. This should not be done. Have you already tried?

        Your altitude keeps going up while you go down, definitely weird. If all activities are like this, you should probably contact support.
