FWIW, I tried calculating total ascent from a recorded GPX and - even though I didn't see the '0' values - the results were unusable. I believe that's because GPS height positioning is relatively inaccurate so even if you were to travel on a perfectly flat road, you would still see changes in elevation - which would contribute to your total climb. I got results that were clearly wrong, so I abandoned that project. Andy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Osmand" group.
