New Features for Enhanced Tracker Management

Our latest update brings robust enhancements to our Tracker Management, focusing on usability, error prevention & scalability when managing large numbers of GPS trackers. These features streamline your workflow & boost productivity. 

"LAST MESSAGE" & "LAST DATA" Columns: To clarify device communication, we’ve introduced two distinct columns, that help to error prevention for smoother device management.

  • LAST MESSAGE - Displays the time since RACEMAP last sent or attempted to send a message to the device. 
  • LAST DATA - Shows the time since RACEMAP received the latest data from the device, whether it’s a geolocation, heartbeat, or another message type.

"REPORT DISTANCE" Column: Advanced users can now use the new REPORT DISTANCE column to verify if configuration updates have reached the device, offering greater control over device synchronization.

Batch Counters & Direct Messaging: Quickly see the number of active filters & highlighted devices with new batch counters. You can also send messages directly to highlighted devices from both the filtered & selected devices tables, making large-scale device management faster & more efficient. 

Power Key Settings: You now easily check the status of the power button - whether it’s active or disabled - directly in the device settings tab. The device settings are automatically retrieved when the GPS tracker establishes a TCP connection with our server, ensuring automatically up-to-date status visibility without manual input.

These updates help you manage devices more effectively, reduce errors, and scale effortlessly. Try them today and experience the enhanced efficiency!

Speed Chart Enhancements in Predictive Tracking

We’re excited to share the next improvement to our predictive live tracking. This update refines the speed graphs (Set speed, Live speed, and Replay speed) in the analysis section of prediction, ensuring clearer & more actionable insights. 

In March, we introduced a new "jumping dots"-feature (beta) to address the discrepancy between the forecast of our prediction and the latest data from the timekeeping system. This feature quickly adjusts the dots' locations according to sporadic timing updates and the dots "jump" to the latest known location. Learn more about this feature in our previous announcement: https://updates.racemap.com/enhanced-predictive-live-tracking-with-jumping-dots-3152ik 

We observed that the live speed graph displayed sharp peaks when dots were jumping, showing maximum speed values up to 1000 km/h that overshadowed the regular speed data. This made normal speed values hard to see and impossible to interpret. 

We’ve now resolved this issue! The speed chart is more balanced, making it easy to read, analyze, and understand the data.

Enhancements to Predictive Live Tracking

We've released updates to our predictive live tracking, delivering improved insights & usability to help you unlock the full potential of your timing data and process live tracking like never before!

The analysis now shows all mappings of the accepted reads, which helps understanding complex scenarios, such as:  

  • Laps where participants pass the same segment multiple times. 
  • Offset values for overlapping or closely positioned track segments. 

Interactive Visualization Enhancements - Hover Functionality: Easily identify and explore specific readers directly in both the elevation chart and the map, making it effortless to analyze key data points. 

With these upgrades, predictive live tracking has never been easier or more effective.
