Lap data in Activity::Info

I don't see lap data in Activity::Info. Is it possible to add it in future release?
Apart from all the data that can be displayed using built-in data fields it would be nice to have startLocation and startTime too.
Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion. We'll take this into consideration for a future release.

We have this on the books to be addressed, but the feature is not yet available. I've made notes on our ticket and have asked to see if we can move it up in priority.

Any update on this request? I would like to have lap data available for a complex data field without having to develop my own app.

Thank you so much! This would allow a developer to make a "Last Lap HR" field as well. A field that should have been in the watch in the first place, especially the Fenix 3 as the manual references such field yet it's not available.

Is there an estimated timeframe for this feature? I'm keen to see it.

I've been experimenting with my own autolaps but am not able to get exact 1km marks. I get 1.02/1.01/0.98/0.99km numbers.

When I look at garmin fit file (converted to CSV) I see that there is an error at each 1000m mark. It's almost like garmin is fudging the lap markers.

Is this true???

I mean, given the accuracy / repeatability of GPS, getting an exact 1000m increments seems to be a very tough job.

The device interpolates the exact Auto Lap point between points when the distance threshold is crossed.

ahhhhhh....
How does a developer with no access to this interpolation be able to do something like this?
Wondering cos I'm trying to do an app to do the laps.

I don't think there is anything to have access to. It is just math.

If you get an update at 5:00 - 0.99km and the next is at 5:02 - 1.01km, then you can guess that the 1.00km point occurred at 5:01.

You roll your own. You can just take the simple approach and assume that speed was constant within the sampling period so if the period is 1 second and the previous distance was 0.99 miles and the next one is 1.01 then you just assume that the 1 mile mark was crossed at the 0.5 second mark. Simple.
