Polar Vantage V Satellites

Polar Vantage V has several options for positioning satellites:

  • GPS + Glonass (default)
  • GPS + Galileo
  • GPS + QZSS

Which of these give better accuracy for my location?

How it works

  • Upload route and GPX files to PostGIS
  • Calculate distance between GPX and route

Use with your own routes

  • Create GPX route of a segment you want to use for testing accuracy (route.gpx)
    • It is important that this is as precise as possible
  • Go to Strava and correct elevation on the activity. Download resulting GPX (elevation.gpx)
    • This will serve as the ground truth for the elevation
  • Set Polar watch satellites to Glonass / Galileo / QZSS and record runs with each
