Trackrecording with GPS

If I make a cycle track with GPS.

The result is not following the cycle ways precisely.

How can I recalculate the GPS route with function Cycle to make a GPX route following the correct bike ways?

Hi, Locus Map processes data that it receives from your phone GPS. If the data is incorrect and contains deviations, then the resulting track record is also incorrect. Locus Map, however, offers a few methods on how to limit these deviations. Open Locus settings > GPS&sensors:


- Location filter > select medium or heavier filter


- Google Services assisted location > turn it ON

You can also adjust the track recording profile parameters - distance and time intervals (more at https://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:user_guide:tracks:recording:profiles_settings#parameters)

As for the recalculation - it is possible with the route planner but keep in mind that by this process the statistics measured during the track recording can be distorted:

- open the track in the route planner

- add shaping points to it - the more shaping points the better result - preferable between all intersections so that the router doesn't abbreviate the route

- open router menu > recalculate all > select cycle > confirm
