About RouteGadget

Screen Shot of RouteGadget

Described as a "Web utility for drawing and comparing orienteering routes".

It enables competitors to draw and compare their routes. RouteGadget not only shows the routes, but when linked with e-punch results, it allows the race to be replayed, even simulating a mass start. You will actually see little squares move across the map.

It really adds another dimension to post-race analysis.

Day 1 Medium & Short Score courses

There was a problem with control BR that worked for some competitors, then died, and was then replaced with another. I understand that there may be a few competitors that had this control manually credited. If this applies to you it will be missing from the sequence of controls visited in RouteGadget. When plotting your route make sure that your line includes BR on route to the next control. Apologies for this but it should only be a small number affected.

Viewing score courses

You can select teams and view the control sequence they punched, but if you view more than one it can get very messy with lines everywhere. So best to only pick 1 or 2 at a time. Once a route has been plotted (* next to the name) you can select several at a time, but it is best then to un-tick the "Course on/off" button. You will then just see the coloured lines for each team.

If you haven't used RouteGadget before there is a Help button at the top right of the map pages or read the full help section, if you still have a question contact me with the day & course and your problem.
