In Progress
As a long-time user of the Silver version of Locus Map, I’ve always had an issue with hiking distances: the number of kilometers recorded is consistently 500 to 600 meters shorter than the planned distance in the route file.
How can I resolve this issue in the settings? Thank you for your answer.
Hi,
Is this difference consistent? What’s the total distance of the planned route?
Please note that the planned route follows trails that might be misaligned or generalized. On the other hand, the recorded track relies on real GPS data, which can occasionally be inaccurate—so it’s expected that the planned and recorded routes won’t match perfectly.
I can’t say for sure whether the diffrence could be as large as 500 meters. If you'd like, feel free to share the GPX files of both the planned and recorded tracks, and we can take a closer look.
Thanks,
Petr
