Hello, still newish around here and learning. i had a run from this past week that just synced with the lifemap and i see there are 2 nodes that were ‘missed’. Its clear its because the gps data was slightly off the road, but from what i’ve read it should grab them as complete if within 75m of the nodes…seems very unlikely i was >75m away. I know i can mark the street as manually complete, but aside from not wanting to do that, it also would mark the rest of the street as complete, which is just inaccurate. Is there a way to mark individual NODES as complete?
No way to mark nodes as complete outside for the manually marking the street option. What kind of watch to you have btw? I know I have had issues with my Fenix with all the GPS tracks shifting left and had similar problems as this (I just ended up rerunning the few sections where it mattered). I switched it to my right hand and I get much better data now. I started a thread on Garmin support and this seems like a very widespread issue.
Re-run this section (or drive right there and record a 10s walk!)
Ignore these nodes, knowing that once you get >90% of the total nodes on the street it will be granted complete anyways
@dallas.devries switching from your left to right hand fixed the accuracy of your GPS data?? I’ve never heard that before. Might be something to try at some point.
ahhh…its 25m. i must have converted it in my head to 75 ft and then thought it was 75m. So it seems its working as intended since the track was ~110 feet off from the center of the road. bummer. thanks for the clarification.
hmmm…ill probably drive it i guess. hadnt considered that, feels kinda wrong.
I have wanted to change that code from the moment that I wrote it. I would so much rather some kind of “you have passed this node, therefore it is complete” check instead of the current “one of your activity GPS coordinates is within 25m of this node, therefore it is complete” check.
@davemorin here is the thread I started on Garmins support site. If you look at your GPS tracks you’ll be able to see pretty quickly if its affecting you or not. Some Garmin devices work fine but I know it happens on my Fenix 5 and Fenix 6 Pro and several others having same issue. Some are posting some more extensive testing they have done with how they wear their watch.
