# Monitor

![Basic features of the monitor: status, alerts and interactive maps showing all coordinates](https://1672210197-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-LSRNxaH2Ju9Flr7JhJD%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-23e0877e9e46cbade31eef8b4cb283b78af4f928%2Fmonitor_1.gif?alt=media)

{% hint style="success" %}
Check the monitor of the 100km-Duathlon around Dresden:

**Past sample** <https://racemap.com/monitor/100KmDuathlon2018>
{% endhint %}

* 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

{% hint style="info" %}
The more precise the GPS data, the more reliable Monitor works — and the more effectively it enhances participant safety.&#x20;

* For best results, use Monitor with Queclink GL3xx GPS trackers. In addition to geodata, these devices transmit events such as SOS and crash detection - information not provided from other types or the tracking app.&#x20;
* Avoid using Monitor with tracking app to minimize user-related uncertainties. Apps rely on behaviors outside your control, such as installing the app, charging the smartphone, and joining live tracking.&#x20;

#### Progress overview

The progress is automatically determined for each device respectively for each participant within the start- and finish time of the tracking map.

![Visualization of the progress of all devices in the monitor](https://1672210197-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-LSRNxaH2Ju9Flr7JhJD%2Fuploads%2FrjdiVIdwLbrgekvZUVsD%2Fscreenshot-racemap.com-2022.02.11-10_53_03.png?alt=media\&token=f15ea8d6-a2bd-43f7-b8f3-1b80fdda7649)

<table><thead><tr><th width="150">Color</th><th width="150">Status</th><th>Geolocations</th><th>On or Off</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><mark style="background-color:green;">Green</mark></td><td>Finished</td><td>Locations sent from the last point of the shadowtrack</td><td>Device switched on or off</td></tr><tr><td><mark style="background-color:blue;">Blue</mark></td><td>On track</td><td>Locations sent from shadowtrack within 100 m distance</td><td>On or off</td></tr><tr><td>Grey</td><td>Not started</td><td>Locations sent, but no location from shadowtrack</td><td>On or off</td></tr><tr><td>Light grey</td><td>Inactive</td><td>No locations sent, yet</td><td>Off</td></tr></tbody></table>

For <mark style="background-color:green;">Finished</mark>-, <mark style="background-color:blue;">On track</mark>- and "Not started"-status the tracking map needs a shadowtrack.

#### Alerts and notifications

![The notifications in the alert stream are linked to the corresponding device.](https://1672210197-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-LSRNxaH2Ju9Flr7JhJD%2Fuploads%2FTTSgleXaUnsi73uqxhLw%2Fmonitor_link.gif?alt=media\&token=f96a1b53-2308-46c8-8f19-eb1826bda781)

Notifications are generated separately for each device in the event with the information

* Type of the alert
* Participant or device that caused the alert
* Timestamp & coordinate of the latest trigger
* Number of how often the alert was caused

<table><thead><tr><th width="155.93209155786968">Type of alert</th><th width="205.39047306279542">Description</th><th>Auto-resolve</th><th>Time</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Crash*</td><td>Pro GPS tracker, auto-detection</td><td>➖</td><td>8 hrs before start- &#x26; 8 hrs after end time of event</td></tr><tr><td>SOS*</td><td>SOS button on GPS tracker pressed</td><td>➖</td><td>8 hrs before start- &#x26; 8 hrs after end time of event</td></tr><tr><td>Battery*</td><td>Battery charge &#x3C; 20 %, is shown one time every 24 hrs</td><td>➖</td><td>within start- &#x26; end time of event</td></tr><tr><td>No movement</td><td>average speed in past 5 min * &#x3C; <code>min speed</code> of event<br>* &#x3C; 1 km/h (= 80 m) if <code>min speed</code> is 0 km/h</td><td>Moved distance > 80 m in past 5 min</td><td>within start- &#x26; end time of event</td></tr><tr><td>Away from track</td><td>Location with distance from shadowtrack > 100 m</td><td>Location with distance from shadowtrack &#x3C; 100 m</td><td>within start- &#x26; end time of event</td></tr><tr><td>Power off</td><td>Either manual power button or device shuts down due to battery</td><td>➖</td><td>within start- &#x26; end time of event</td></tr></tbody></table>

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.

{% hint style="info" %}
\*Crash-, SOS- and battery alert is provided for devices with tracker management subscription.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
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.
{% endhint %}

#### Parameters in the monitor

The information is shown in the monitoring dashboard for all devices.

#### Diagrams for deep insights for each device

![Interactive graphs & maps for each device to investigate cheating, lost track, or detour situations](https://1672210197-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-LSRNxaH2Ju9Flr7JhJD%2Fuploads%2FblzVlqzWUoh1ZvjNXnBN%2Fmonitor_charts.gif?alt=media\&token=857ba830-7ad7-44a9-bd5b-633169f7a5f7)
