9.5 Configuring the Length Unit of Measurement
In
Tools > Options > Units
your can choose several units of measurement that will be used to calculate the length
of Tracklogs and Routes. Changing the length unit of the measurement also changes the speed units, as follows:
• For units in English measures (like yd, mi., and nmi.), speed will be indicated in
mi/h
(miles per hour) or
Nmi/h
(knots). Otherwise, they will be in
km/h
(kilometers per hour)
• In the same way, windows that show or require data with distance set for English units, the distance will be
indicated in miles. Other cases, it will be in kilometers.
