Welcome to the division-result-bridge documentation. The pages here serve as a usage guide for the program aimed at division match organisers. If you're new here, but you'd like to give division-result-bridge a try, I suggest you read the introduction series in order, starting from Getting started. This will take you all the way from initial installation to execution on the day of the event.

Motivation

Any competition would be meaningless without results, and having access to the results early is usually preferable. Orienteering is no exception. For conventional events, where runners compete individually, live publication of results can easily be achieved with the online service liveresultat.orientering.se. However, the service does not lend itself well to all types of events.

In Denmark, entire clubs regularly compete against each other in divisions. Results are determined by a points-scoring system, with runners scoring points on behalf of their clubs based on their individual results. Typically, the points are calculated with the program Divisionsmatchberegning by Anders Klinting, but options for live publication of results online are rather limited.

Introducing division-result-bridge. In conjunction with MeOS, Divisionsmatchberegning and division-result-server, this program allows organisers of division matches to produce and publish results live for easy, online access of up-to-date results.
