Every Incident on One Map
,,

Medical emergencies, aid station resupply requests, unstaffed intersections, and sweep bus position. The race director sees every active situation with GPS coordinates, severity, and responder assignment. This is the layer that registration-only platforms never built.

Start corral tablets, finish-line TVs, expo POS terminals, walk-up kiosks, inventory scanners, and the race clock. Used to be six different systems from six different vendors, all needing setup in a parking lot before dawn. Now it is one login.

Race-Day Operations

Course operations for when the race outgrows the registration platform.
