    @sartoric thanks
    I edited the activity, at least the data is now correct again and I do not have anymore a walk of 1100km in 5h 😊

      Hi,
      I have a similar problem on my 9 Baro. I noticed that my recorded route has errors. Upon close examination, I found that this has been happening since March and only on the bike. Maybe it’s been wrong even longer, but I’ve only been on the bike in March 🙂
      It’s hardly noticeable in the Suunto App . I noticed it on the Sport Tracker website (see pictures)
      I’m posting a link to one activity. It happens at time 3:16:07.
      https://www.suunto.com/cs-cz/move/pavlas2/604caca9f024d82358e34632
      Any ideas?
      I have the latest firmware.

          @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.

              @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 🙂
