8.4.8      Analyse subtracks

 

Land allows you to subdivide a track into a single portion called subtrack’. By doing this you can work more closely on that particular stretch, as well as analyse data and statistics with greater precision.

 

Define a subtrack

 

In order to define a subtrack, reproduce the following steps:

 

1.   At map window, open the contextual on the track point where you want to start the subtrack and select ‘Subtrack > Start subtrack here’.

 

2.   Reproduce the same step to define the ending point of the subtrack: at map window, open the contextual on the track point where you want to finish the subtrack and select ‘Subtrack > End subtrack here’.

 

3.   The newly defined subtrack will be highlighted from the rest of the track.

 

IMPORTANT: In case you made a wrong selection, press ‘Subtrack > Unselect subtrack’ to mark the subtrack again.

 

Subtrack analysis

 

Take the chance to analyse in more detail the subtrack, Land will offer you several statistics and relevant information. Follow these steps to analyse in more precision the subtrack that you just defined:

 

1.   At map window, open the contextual on the subtrack that you just defined and select ‘Subtrack > Subtrack analysis’.

 

2.   A new window will appear showing the results of the analysis (duration, speed, altitude, distance, ascent, descent, slope…).

 

IMPORTANT: Remember that you can also readjust the area covered by the subtrack at any moment by setting a new starting or ending point.

 

NOTE: You can store the subtrack that you just defined independently from the rest of the track, press ‘Subtrack > Save subtrack’.

 

Additional operations on subtracks

 

To eliminate a subtrack follow these steps:

 

1.   At map window, open the contextual on the subtrack that you just defined and select ‘Subtrack > Delete subtrack’.

 

2.   The points of the subtrack that you have selected will be eliminated and the two adjacent points of the subtrack will be joined in a straight line (this straight line will not contain any track points).
