We’re excited to share our recent improvements & new features in RACEMAP, designed to give our users more flexibility, clarity, and control over live tracking and event management. 

Interactive Elevation Chart Component

Our new Interactive Elevation Chart component is now available. It allows you to:

• Visualize the course elevation profile
• Track real-time positions of athletes
• Highlight important Points of Interest

The chart is fully customizable via URL parameters, making it easy to integrate into video productions, live broadcasts, or custom dashboards. 

This component was developed based on feedback from our advanced users during the February RACEMAP Masterclass Workshop and represents the first outcome from that collaboration.

Tag-Based Filtering for Generic Imports

You can now filter participant synchronization in the Generic Import based on tags. 

• Import only specific subsets of starters
• Align Generic Import logic with the race result import filter
• Address previous import issues and revamp the participant configuration component

This improvement ensures more precise and reliable imports, saving time when managing large events and complex datasets. 

Knots as a New Speed Unit

A customer working with water events was asking for knots as a new speed unit. 

• Renamed unit → unitType to separate from external APIs and make it explicit
• Added preview for the unit system
• Updated distance markers in the player
