This tool is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts such as hikers, cyclists, and travelers who want to track their elevation changes effectively. Features include switching between metric and feet units, setting target altitudes, and selecting between device GPS, ASTER model, or a combined altitude for accuracy. Being ad-supported freeware, it’s accessible to all users looking to enhance their outdoor experience with precise altitude data.
