    @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.

                                          @pavlas said in how to correct GPS error?:

                                          @mff73 No, it’s not really a Sport Tracker problem. There really is a GPS problem 🙂
                                          Try checking the times and kilometers in my link
                                          3:16:07 - 40.86 km
                                          3:16:34 - 41.22 km
                                          ! 3:17:01 - 40.98 km !
                                          3:17:27 - 41.44 km

                                          Effectively, something strange in SA as well.
