Calibration overview
Calibration is optional.
Use this article to choose the right calibration article.
What calibration changes
Calibration lets TRIPS use recorded FIT activity data to personalize planner behavior.
That affects route estimates such as movement, effort, and related route outputs.
Start here if your question is:
Should I calibrate at all?
Read Optional calibration.
Use that article if you are deciding whether calibration is worth the extra setup.
How do I do the full workflow?

Calibration workflow summary
The workflow is:
- Decide whether calibration is worth doing.
- Prepare and ingest representative FIT files.
- Review the resulting dataset and workspace outputs.
- Preview the effect on a route.
- Save a profile only if the preview improves the route behavior you checked.
- Apply that profile to a trip or future trips.
