GEORACING is a complete solution for tracking and visualising outdoor sporting events in 3D. Moreover, background information and statistics are provided to enhance the spectator experience. Each event is broadcast live on large screens for big audiences, on television, internet portals and smartphones.

The visualisations are based on the realistic 3D reconstruction of the competition site (relying on GoogleEarth-style geographical data) and the different competitors (take sailing for example, we model the different types of boats).

OUR PARTNERS

GEORACING employs the GPS tracking system developed by its long-time partner, MYLAPS, located in the Netherlands (autonomous trackers with GPRS reception dedicated to sportsmen and women). MYLAPS is the world leader in timing (motor sports with its "transponders" and running with its "chips"). MYLAPS markets the system in the Netherlands and Northern Europe as well as in countries where they have a subsidiary (USA, Australia, Japan ...).

WAYPOINT TRACKING is helmed by sailor Christine BRIAND, a 3-time 470 world champion (Olympic class). Christine knows the sailing market in Europe very well; she is the one who introduced GEORACING on the market in France and Southern Europe.
