### Recalculating elevation from terrain data
If an activity shows an unrealistic elevation gain (common with GPS-only devices on flat
routes, or with older Garmin/Wahoo files), the edit drawer has a
**"Recalculate from terrain map (DEM)"** button.
Clicking it replaces the recorded GPS altitude with SRTM terrain data from the
[Open-Elevation API](https://open-elevation.com) and recomputes the gain and loss. The
elevation chart and the summary stats both update. This usually brings the numbers in
line with what Strava or your device's app reports.
> **Note:** The correction requires a GPS track (activities marked *No GPS* cannot be
> corrected). The DEM has ~30 m horizontal resolution, so very short or indoor activities
> are not meaningfully improved.
