Each option affects how dots are moving in the interactive map. Watch the above scene with differently pinned flags to the track. * **Magnetic (NEW)**: Within a 50 m distance from the track the flags are pinned to the track. Geodata with 50+ m distance is shown as raw coordinates. The grey flag moves smoothly through the curve (pinned to the track) and the white flag is shown beside the track (raw data). * **None**: The visualization shows the coordinates as raw data. Disadvantage: Due to +/- 25 m accuracy of GPS devices, the locations don't precisely match the track and the grey flag cuts the curve. * **Always**: The visualization always shows all coordinates on the track. For that reason, the grey flag moves smoothly through the curve. But the white flag is pinned to the track, also. It is not possible to see that the white flag lost track. ### Navigation of **participants and points of interest** {% tabs %} {% tab title="Search & select" %} ![search and select in tracking map](https://1672210197-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-LSRNxaH2Ju9Flr7JhJD%2Fuploads%2F1bvXyB2oBgNzNHyqIkrU%2Fsearch_select.gif?alt=media\&token=1e0b2f55-7c68-47ad-baa2-83266839250b) {% endtab %} {% tab title="Hover" %} ![hover participantsnts & POIs in the list, elevation provile and in the map](https://1672210197-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-LSRNxaH2Ju9Flr7JhJD%2Fuploads%2F79zHFfGpNHBu6X7tMuaa%2Fhover_Racemap_tracking_map.gif?alt=media\&token=53773610-4763-499e-a66c-42df6cc38c0f) {% endtab %} {% tab title="Filter" %} ![filter participants in the visualization](https://1672210197-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-LSRNxaH2Ju9Flr7JhJD%2Fuploads%2FBRTYozwZE6CHRVdqQ38D%2Ffilter-tags_desktop.gif?alt=media\&token=515c1f3f-2f79-409c-9dba-02b0333842ec) {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} * Filter and search participants and points of interest. * An arrow moves on the track while hovering over the elevation profile. * Selected participants are highlighted as a flag and the visualization centers automatically. * Select respectively hover athletes and points of interest in the list, in the map, and in the elevation profile.
