8.4.3      Store tracks in logbooks

 

What is a logbook?

 

Land offers you the possibility to create your personal archive of tracks so that you can store them at one single place (logbook).

 

 

Logbooks are very useful to compare evolutions and get an extremely detailed control of each activity in a single table. Press ‘Logbook’ to review all kind of information recorded on your tracks: starting point of the track, date of the activity, departure time, track duration, total distance, trip ascent, mean speed…

 

NOTE: You can also change the fields of this table by opening the contextual menu on it and selecting ‘Fields selection’.

 

 

Another important feature of logbooks is the possibility to classify all your activities by date. Calendar‘ shows all your tracks stored day by day. Once stored, decide according to your needs what is the most important information that you want to highlight in the calendar (in this example tracks are displayed by name and distance.

 

 

‘Statistics’ gives you the possibility to have an overview of your evolution generating graphic representations of the most relevant variables (ascent, distance, heartrate, altitude…) by time intervals.
