Gurus,
A couple of questions for the brain trust:
1. Has anyone compared the accuracy of the GPS-only based elevation against the barometric sensor accuracy?
2. Are the elevation measurements corrected when uploading at the end of a ride?
TIA

Thanks for the info. Is there a way to automatically trigger Strava to correct the elevation on all rides uploaded so it doesn't have to be done each time?
My Edge Explore grossly under reports elevation gain on long rides with lots of elevation gain.
In recent weeks, Strava reports activities I record with the Edge Explore as elevation corrected. Activites that I record with my Edge 800 still show up in Strava with a link to correct the elevation.
I assume that when Garmin Connect sends the activity to Strava, it conveys that the elevation has been corrected if the activity is recorded by a device that is set in GC to auto correct the elevation.
Thank you and yes, Strava is auto correcting the elevation.
