Monitor

Keep track of participants. Assistance for the race office. Dashboard with clear & reliable information for safety- and coordination purposes. Live data of what matters most during the event.
Basic features of the monitor: status, alerts and interactive maps showing all coordinates
Check the monitor of the 100km-Duathlon around Dresden:
  • 10 seconds auto-refresh.
  • Live data from GPS trackers and from tracking apps.
  • Considers coordinates within the start- and end time of the event.
  • Clipboard specific locations, format: 50° 56' 46.3920" N, 13° 53' 37.0680" E
The better the geodata from the applied GPS devices the more accurate the information in the monitor. Due to the more accurate data, we recommend using Pro GPS trackers when working with the monitor.

In order not to needlessly claim the attention of the staff we filter alerts in the monitor: Within a 500 m radius around the 1st and the last point of the shadowtrack (~ close to start- and finish area) "away from track"- and "no movement"-alerts are ignored.
*Crash-, SOS- and battery alert is provided for devices with tracker management subscription.
Crash- and SOS alerts are sent as an email to all editors of the tracking map, additionally. You don't miss an important alert when not watching the monitor all the time.
