This is an initial analysis of the data I have, and there are a number of further evaluations to do.
* Check how GPS accuracy changes over the course of a run, as I've seen a distinct tendency for the watches to say they are good to go when they don't really have an optimal lock on the satellites. I wait for 5+ minutes between the watches saying they have sufficient satellites locked in, so this should not be a problem with the data shown here, but I could do some tests where I turn on the watch from a cold state, then start running as soon as they claim they have a lock.
* Look at how accurate the GPS watches are for measuring elevation, and compare with barometric data.
* Write up general GPS accuracy.
