Default Elevation Data

In the thread about the virtual VIR Track Walk with Ross Bentley and Peter, Peter posted up a great graphic of a track map with the elevation data. I'm sure he's going to dig in deeper during the track walk, but I wanted to post up a cool way for anyone with an AiM system (and probably others) to get similar data.

In the GPS channels there is one that is elevation. This will give you a great line chart of the elevation of the track as you drive it. It show you the ups and downs around the course. You can also double right click on the GPS map and move it around to have a picture of the track with the ups and downs. Then, if you click on the measure for the graph, you can make the rainbow to be the track elevation too. Some really great info in these graphs.
