Anyone know of a suitable replacement for Strava SNAP?
For those who used SNAP, I found it to be a very worthwhile tool. If you don't use it, basically it would "snap" your gps data to the road if your Garmin's gps track drifted from the road during a ride, and didn't record a time for a particular segment. It wasn't perfect (often the time would not be accurate), but it was better than not recording a segment effort. Apparently Strava owns the domain for that site, and for some dumb reason, decided to scuttle it because "not many people use it". Well *I* use it, and I know other people use it too, so that's a specious reason IMO. I know you can send a support ticket to fix the track data directly to Strava, but I've gotten worse results that way than I would when SNAP was running. Does anyone know of another site or program that does the same thing SNAP did? Or is there another way to manipulate Garmin .FIT files in an easy enough way to fix gps drift? (I've Googled this, and the obvious results (FIT File Tools, etc) do not fix bad/drifted gps data.)

I don't get it... How is an inaccurate result better than no result?
Seems to me it would just clutter up the segment leader boards with crap data. |
RunKeeper has an edit feature. You can export from Strava, import to RunKeeper, edit, then reverse the process. It has a manual mode where you can move the GPS point individually to the roads, and it has a "snap" mode, but it sometimes will move more than you want in snap mode. I think the trick is to edit in the direction of the ride. It also has a back button if the snap edit goes nuts.
When you import back into Strava you usually have to delete the original first, otherwise Strava thinks it is a duplicate. |

Some of the export/import options are not intuitive, this should help...
Seems a bit convoluted, but once you do it a few times it goes quickly:) |
