How this stage was measured
The course comes from ASO's own published geometry, the same data that draws the stage map on letour.fr, not from a route planner joining towns. VeloWorkout measures 181.3 km against the 181.9 km the roadbook prints, and 2,793 m of climbing against a published 2,700 m. Elevation is sampled from the Terrarium elevation model and smoothed, so digital-model noise is not counted as climbing.
Waypoint positions agree with ASO's separately published climb positions to a median of 81 m (worst 196 m).
