GPX file elevation data Modified By K3IT on 10/10/2020 9:24:55 AM

Does anybody know if there is a way to adjust the altitude unit in the gpx file? I noticed that GPX export of flight path has altitude in feet in the '<ele>' field. The correct unit is meters per the gpx standard. some of the software like google earth and CloudAhoy are not showing the correct altititude when I import the GPX from iFly
