Quite possibly in the Z-coordinate of your geometry column. You can check
in pgadmin or psql (or another program like omnidb) what the exact type of
the postgis geometry in your table is.
You should see something like geometry(LineStringZM,28992) what i.c. means
a dutch projection of a linestring with Z and M coordinates.
You can access these (outside gdal) only through postgis, like
select st_astext(st_pointn(polyline,1)) from ehrdtracks limit 1;
            st_astext
----------------------------------
 POINT ZM (71905.9 417771 1504 0)

Esp with points you can formulate an update query replacing the geometry
element with a condition,
using ST_Makepoint(), see https://postgis.net/docs/ST_MakePoint.html

Perhaps Qgis might help, too, but I can't tell for sure.

Hope this helps,
