Mobile
device GPS altitude data is notoriously error prone. This application
will use the latitude and longitude values in a My Tracks track, or GPX
file, to retrieve more accurate altitude data from the Internet. Note
that if any error in your phone's a latitude and longitude will affect
corrected altitude data. This will be most noticeable for data related
to canyon and mountain side tracks.
NOTE: In order to use this application you must have My Tracks installed and enable sharing in My Tracks.
