Interesting graphic.

The altitude spike where the aircraft dips below the runway surface(!) accompanied by a single, instantaneous 2000+ fpm ROC value is clearly an artifact (unless Newton got it all wrong), probably coinciding with rotation.

There is a similar, spurious altitude spike towards the RH edge of the plot, which you have wisely ignored - that one is easier to account for because a distance-vs-time plot shows the aircraft flying backwards at that point (i.e. it's a timestamp anomaly rather than bad ADS-B data).
