5.4.2. Altimeter
Suunto 5 Peak uses GPS to measure altitude. Under optimal signal conditions, eliminating
potential errors typical in calculating GPS position, the GPS altitude reading should give a
pretty good indication of your elevation.
Because Suunto 5 Peak relies solely on GPS to measure altitude, if the GPS is not set for
maximum accuracy, any
filtering is subject to error and may result in potentially inaccurate
altitude readings.
If you need good elevation readings, ensure your GPS accuracy is set to Best during the
recording.
However, even with the best accuracy, GPS altitude should not be considered an absolute
position. It is an estimation of your real elevation, and the accuracy of this estimation is heavily
dependent on the surrounding conditions.
