The GPS Checkpoint Rally App is a comprehensive tool designed for creating and running various types of checkpoint events. This system allows the event organizer, known as the Rally Master, to design events where participants can reach checkpoints using the GPS capabilities of their devices. Competitors can drive, walk, ski, hike, fly, or sail to checkpoints located anywhere on the planet, while our system tracks their progress and overall scores. Competitors can navigate with external GPS devices, GPS apps, compasses, maps, or basic overland orienteering, ensuring real-time tracking of competitors as they reach each event checkpoint. Additionally, the app automatically logs important information like the date and time and which competitor reached a checkpoint first.
Originally developed for the ADV Cannonball Rally, an adventure motorcycle checkpoint event, we've expanded the functionality to accommodate any event using longitude and latitude waypoints. Users can easily copy any waypoint to the iOS clipboard for use in any navigation app.
**GPS Checkpoints:** Each GPS checkpoint includes latitude and longitude coordinates, a radius, a name, a point value, and a description.
**Leaderboard:** A real-time scoreboard is available for all apps participating in your event. The suite can also provide a public leaderboard link if desired.
**Bulletproof Design:** Once a competitor registers their app, the system downloads all checkpoints locally onto their iOS device. Competitors can achieve checkpoints even when offline, with updates occurring the next time a data connection is available. The entire suite is intentionally designed to prioritize stability and reliability over a graphic-rich user experience.
**Event Messaging:** The Rally Master can send messages directly to competitors' devices. Even if a user is offline, the system will deliver messages the next time they connect to the internet via cellular or Wi-Fi.
**Bonus Checkpoints:** The Rally Master can award non-GPS checkpoints at any time, with any point value, using the Rally Master function.
**Rally Time:** Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) is used for all events, eliminating time zone discrepancies.
**Support:** For larger events, support staff can be provided for remote monitoring and assistance.
