Difference in logbook Dekunu and Cloud

šŸ˜Ÿ issues and bugs
#1

Hi,

There is a difference in the logbook from the Dekunu and the cloud. Even within the cloud there are differences. For example:

Yesterday I did a jump. Dekunu is showing:
Exit altitude: 14.003ft
Deployment 2.238 ft
Duration 58 s

Cloud in My Actions is showing:
Exit altitude: 15.290ft
Deployment 2.610 ft

When viewing the jump:
Exit altitude: 14.650ft
Deployment 2.646 ft
Duration 56 s

Of course this raises questions what is correct. Iā€™m sure the logbook in the dekunu is not correct. Difference between deployment within the cloud is small but the exit altitude is too big.

I understand if the alti has different ways of calculating compared to the cloud. At least have the cloud showing same altitudes and have it send back to the unit to have all values the same. Or update the calculations within the Dekunu so it match the Cloud?

I marked the specific jump for review. This issue is for all the jumps that I have.

Thanks

Is your landing area 1200ft above sea level? I have the same thing, our DZ is 1300ft ASL so all my jumps in the cloud show exits of around 13-14000ft for a 12k jump and around 16500 for a 15K

Hi @buzz_lightyear the Cloud is the more accurate one at the moment

#5

the data between the altimeter and the cloud is not the same for the same jump

The exit is 4699m and it is correct
Exit Height : 4699 ā€“ 4482 = 217m ?
Vertical distance : 3927-3599 = 328m ?
Freefall time 1,24 ā€“ 1,16 = 8sec ?
No Horizontal distance in the altimeter

Deployment Heigjt
Altimer : 7700m

Cloud : 880m

I opened at 1000m and my landing area is 190 m up of sea level

I upload the data to Dekunu
