TackTracker

The TackTracker Navigation Rally module is a licensed extension to TackTracker for running Navigation Rallies or Log Trials.  To run a Navigation Rally with TackTracker:

Define your rally event:

• Define the course. Each Turn may be entered as a GPS coordinate, a distance and bearing, or laid on the screen with the mouse.    It is easy to review and edit the course as needed.
• Define scoring gates.  Competitors are scored each time they pass through a gate.   You may define as many or few scoring gates as you wish.
• Define the rally start date and time.
• Define the starting interval.  Competitors may start every minute, 2 minutes, 5 minutes, or free start.
• View the course in Google Earth against satellite terrain.

At the Event: 

On the day, hand out the trackers to each competitor and collect them at the finish.

As each competitor's tracker is loaded into TackTracker, they are scored automatically, with results presented in a new "Nav Rally Results" tab.   Times and scores are provided for every gate crossing, and the total score automatically computed.  The rally may be replayed on a big screen for the interest and enjoyment of all competitors.

Although a license is needed to define and run a navigation rally, no license is needed to view a rally - so competitors may each view the rally at home on their own PC.
