❖
Distance: Distance traveled since the GPS-3D Sensor was
started (requires GPS-3D Sensor).
❖
Altitude: Current height above sea level (requires GPS-3D
Sensor).
❖
Elevation: Difference between your current altitude and the
altitude when you started the chronograph (requires GPS-3D
Sensor).
Vertical Mode example
You are heli-skiing in Banff on a run estimated at 2,700 vertical
feet (214 vertical meters). Curious about the accuracy of the
estimate as well as how long it will take you to make your run,
you start your GPS-3D Sensor, navigate to Vertical Mode and
press START as you take off down the mountain. At the end of
your run, you press STOP and then DISPLAY until you see
Ascent Rate and Elevation (expressed in a negative number since
you traveled downhill). Use this information to see how fast you
skiied and compare the Watch’s expressed elevation to your
guide’s estimate.
