After completing your first outing, today we'll show you how to analyse it with tools that will be very useful to evaluate your performance and gain a deeper understanding of the terrain you've covered.
Once at home, turn on the GPS to connect it to the Wi-Fi network. By doing this, we'll sync the activity you completed in the previous session with TwoNav Cloud. It will be saved in the virtual cloud and will be accessible from all your TwoNav devices.
OPEN YOUR ACTIVITY IN LAND
Today, we'll analyse the activity on your computer using the route planner Land.
Open Land and make sure synchronisation with TwoNav Cloud is enabled. You’ll find all your activities organised by years and months in the 'My Activities' section within the data tree. To open an activity, simply double-click on it.
If your activity doesn’t appear centred on the map, double-click on the open activity again, and Land will centre the route on the screen.
Tip: Make sure that synchronisation with TwoNav Cloud is active so that each time you arrive home, your route is automatically downloaded to Land. Enable it by pressing the 'TwoNav Cloud' icon in the button bar:
MAP ANALYSIS
Depending on the map you have open, you can view the route on a topographic map, an orthophoto, etc. Zoom in with the mouse and move around the map to examine the paths you travelled in greater detail.
If you want to view your route more realistically, press the 3D button on the button bar:
The 3D view provides a three-dimensional perspective of all the terrain you have traversed. Use the mouse or the on-screen commands to adjust the rotation, elevation, and tilt of the 3D view.
DATA ANALYSIS
In addition to viewing your track on the map and analysing the entire route, Land also allows you to examine a wealth of data recorded in the track during your activity. To do this, open the Properties window by clicking the 'Properties' button on the button bar.
In this window, you can examine essential data from the activity, such as duration, times, elevations, altitudes, speeds, energy, etc.
Tip: In the 'General' section, add a title, a description, and categorise your activity by difficulty and type of route.
GRAPH ANALYSIS
On the button bar, open the Graph window by clicking the 'Graph' button.
This window displays the profile of your activity; by default, you will see the altitude/distance graph.
If you click on the X-axis, you can switch the value between 'Distance' and 'Time'. For a more detailed analysis, you can change the Y-axis value to another field or add a second Y-axis to the graph to track the progression of two or more values on the same graph.
For more tips on using graphs in Land, read the following article.
COLOUR GRADIENT ANALYSIS
Lastly, another way to obtain a highly visual analysis of your progress throughout the activity is by using the 'Track Colour Gradient' function. This function allows you to quickly view the different phases your activity went through. To activate the colour gradient on your track, press the 'Colour Gradient' button on the button bar:
By default, Land will colour your route according to the 'Altitude' data. The more intense the colour, the higher the recorded altitude.
To analyse the progression of other data, click the arrow next to the 'Colour Gradient' icon on the button bar and select another field.
HOMEWORK
Now that you are familiar with the tools, we suggest you analyse your first outing in more detail.
- Experiment with the tools on the map. Zoom in to see the details of your walk.
- In the Graph window, add the speed graph.
- Analyse your activity with different data using the colour gradient.
