Is there a way to edit GPS points?

It's your prerogative to choose your beliefs, but that doesn't oblige any other party

Is there EASY way to delete the inaccurate data?

No.

I can't believe Garmin wouldn't have a easier way to delete just a few points.

Why? Garmin Connect is not designed to be an activity data manipulation application. Data collection for metrics and attributes that can be tracked by hardware sensors is the watch's responsibility, while accepting other information, such as notes and exercise gear used, that require user input is Garmin Connect's responsibility; there isn't much middle ground.

It isn't a tacit goal to allow users to ‘photoshop’ their tracked activities, even if they don't agree with what the hardware captured along the way, any more than a basic photo viewer/album organiser application would allow users to remove red eyes from a photo. If you want to do that, that's fine, but you'll have to find some external means to edit the captured data and risk compromising information integrity.

Why you ask? Because the data Garmin collected is wrong. If the "design" for the Fenix 3 HR is "Data collection for metrics and attributes that can be tracked by hardware sensors" I expect it to be done accurately. Which apparently it does not. I pay upwards of $600 for a device to do that and your saying if that doesn't work correctly to deal with it? I didn't by a "basic photoshop program" I bought a expensive GPS device. What if it was 30 miles off or 100 miles off? I understand some things Garmin can't control during a hike/run like not having a clear view of sky or overcast but you're saying tough deal with it... I expect that device to work properly and if it doesn't we should be able to edit the data to correct it.

My question to you is why wouldn't you want that feature? What you do care if I edit MY DATA? I'm not sharing it with you. It's MY personal data and I want it to be accurate. I don't care what other people do with THEIR data. If they want to buy a $600 device and draw silly pictures on maps hell let them do it. I don't care what they do with their money. The more features the better. All I'm asking is for a way to remove a couple of points that were not accurate on my route without using a external program or losing data. Also, just a FYI, most basic photo viewers/organizers do offer red eye removal so I don't know where you were going with that.

If I have a run that is not accurate on MapMyRun, or just about any other FREE GPS enabled app for my phone, I can go in and edit the course. It's a simply feature. It's not rocket science.

Screenshot attached so you can see the feature I'm asking for.

Your tone which implies others owe you something just rubs me the wrong way

… but you're saying tough deal with it... I expect that device to work properly and if it doesn't we should be able to edit the data to correct it.

Actually, I was saying by all means find yourself some external means to edit the data, but don't expect support from anyone – including Garmin as the provider of the Garmin Connect service, and fellow Garmin customers – let alone find the lack of support unbelievable.

My question to you is why wouldn't you want that feature? What you do care if I edit MY DATA?

I don't care – and that's the point. I'm not actively preventing or interfering with your acquisition of what you want or need. However, we are not friends, and so what if you're frustrated with the absence of such a feature in the Garmin Connect service provided free of subscription charges, and in no position to force the issue with Garmin? Am I obliged to want something just so you can be less frustrated, if it means nothing to me?

This is a discussion forum first and foremost, and neither an action group nor a customer advocacy channel. Since you brought it up for discussion, I was discussing the status quo – which is why you don't get what you want, irrespective of how you feel about it (and, again, I don't care one way or the other). Whether I would like the feature or find a use for it is beside the point; you don't have it and I don't have it today. I'm more than happy to theorise or discuss the rationale. What I'm not interested in is lending you my support (or, on the flip side, making an effort to hinder your quest) as a fellow customer and Garmin Connect user.

Also, just a FYI, most basic photo viewers/organizers do offer red eye removal so I don't know where you were going with that.

In the same FYI spirit, I checked the native Photo application in OS X (updated to 10.11.4 just the other day) on my Mac before making the assertion. No, there is no red eye removal feature.

Sorry, I'm new to Garmin and looked to the community for assistance. I had a simple question and you answered my question with a abrupt "no" and "tough" response. I feel like there were better way to address that. You've clearly never worked in customer service, and I know this is a forum filled with fanboys, but I can still post here looking for assistance. Your response was not helpful or beneficial for the Garmin community.

As I said early there is no real reason the feature should not be implemented. I'm just looking for the rationale behind that. The rationale of "well, simple photo editing software doesn't have red eye so Garmin doesn't need a feature" isn't really a sufficient response for me. Is it to expensive to implement? Coding too hard? What is the reasoning? I know these are questions you can't answer but someone else might be able to. Bringing it up will hopefully harbor enough responses that Garmin might acknowledge it and implement it. We know you don't care, so fine, move on to another topic. Others might actually want the feature or be interested in the topic.

Also, I don't what your talking about...the red eye removal feature is the easiest feature to find. Maybe you should have asked for assistance on the Mac forums...

To coin a phrase: "Well, that escalated quickly" xD

The short answer is: Not with Garmin Connect.

There's quite a few options to do it with 3rd party tools though, take your pick from these http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Edit_GPS_tracks

I can't think of a reason why Garmin _wouldn't_ want this as an option (although there may be one I haven't thought of), but from their track record with software engineering I think it's probably better for all concerned that they try to learn how to get the basic functionality of GC working before thinking about adding on any bells and whistles.

Edit: I don't know if this would do what you want but damn... nice software! https://sites.google.com/site/mrvogel/Forerunner
Garmin: hire this man! I think I just found my replacement for Garmin Connect!

If it were me I'd simply import the gpx file into BaseCamp ... you can erase any unwanted point using the erase tool :)

Also, I don't what your talking about...the red eye removal feature is the easiest feature to find.

Well, thank you for pointing that out. The help page says to click on Edit in the tool bar, but I've misunderstood that to be the menu bar, and the drop-down menu does not provide a red-eye removal option. I gladly stand corrected on that, so thank you.

All the same, I still don't care about whether fellow users get the functionality they want one way or another, and definitely won't be agitating for change (especially from a position that a particular feature is owed to users, or ‘wrong’ or unreasonable to be absent). I care about discussion, that's why I participate on forums. To exchange ideas, and not necessarily to promote anyone's interests or well-being.

There are better ways from your perspective, no doubt, but you're not my customer and I have nothing to gain commercially or otherwise from your satisfaction.

I saw that and I'll give it a try when I get home. Do you re-upload to Garmin Connect when done? Also, do I lose elevation and heart rate information?

Yes you would. If that's important to you my suggestion won't help.
