# Elevation chart

Query and display the race elevation chart as a standalone component. Customize the interactive profile and control its appearance and behavior via URL parameters.

The interactive elevation chart for sports live tracking shows the real-time progress of all participants along the course. It visualizes the elevation profile, athlete positions, and highlights Points of Interest. It is similar to the elevation profile used in the [event visualization](/live-tracking/map.md#elevation), but can be customized through URL parameters to control its behavior and appearance.

The component can be [embedded into web pages](/live-tracking/iframe.md) or integrated into third-party applications such as custom dashboards or video production workflows, providing a clear overview of the race and the current participant positions.

#### Endpoint

To access the elevation chart for a specific event, use the component’s dedicated URL. The URL follows the same structure as the player URL. For example, to view the 100km Duathlon, use the following link:

{% hint style="info" %}
<https://racemap.com/elevation-chart/100KmDuathlon2018/>

You can also use the `eventId` of your event:

<https://racemap.com/elevation-chart/61a2055b10cacc0001302283/>
{% endhint %}

#### Mandatory prerequisites

* The event has to have exactly one configured [shadowtrack](/live-tracking/shadowtrack.md)
* The shadowtrack covers the whole distance including all loops of the race

Also: How to setup a [shadowtrack](/tab-map.md) or how the [elevation profile](/live-tracking/map.md) is used in the player

#### URL parameters

Customize the behavior and style of the elevation chart with URL parameters. Change the color, hide axes & grid, or filter the participants.

{% hint style="info" %}
[https://racemap.com/elevation-chart/100KmDuathlon2018/<mark style="color:$danger;">**#**</mark>selected=632c5f966d78779bc8e66ac6<mark style="color:$danger;">**&**</mark>color=aabbaa<mark style="color:$danger;">**&**</mark>elevation.showProgress=true](https://racemap.com/elevation-chart/100KmDuathlon2018/#selected=632c5f966d78779bc8e66ac6\&color=aabbaa\&elevation.showProgress=true)

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.racemap.com/live-tracking/profile.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
