<h2 class="articleSubheadline">May 2014</h2>
<ul class="bulletList">
<li>Fixed an issue with the wind speed charts. Charts that only had a single, unchanged
wind speed crashed the browser. The solution scales the right hand side Y-axis denoting
the wind speed such that it always starts at 0kts.
</li>
<li>Analysis of tacks and jibes around mark passings has now been improved. Before,
a jibe followed by a tack that turns in the same direction (e.g., to port) so far
was always called a penalty maneuver. Now, if a mark passing separates such a tack
from such a jibe, no penalty is called anymore, and the two maneuvers are identified
correctly.
</li>
<li>Another note on maneuver analysis: we received questions regarding the maneuvers
involved in clearing an OCS. The SAP Sailing Analytics treat a clearing of
an OCS, going back behind the start line and crossing it again, as if the competitor
started again. In particular this means that all maneuvers prior to this new start
do not count for the metrics; neither does the distance sailed between the first (OCS)
start and the clear start.
</li>
<li>A hint regarding the "distance to start line" metrics: please keep in mind that currently this
measurement is calculated as the distance of the GPS tracker from the line. Unless the tracker
is mounted near the bow (or at the bow sprit, if any), the distance calculated this way will
be greater than what counts for crossing the line. Ordering, comparing and aggregating over this
figure still makes sense as long as you remember this detail.
</li>
<li>Introduced a new leaderboard entry "XTE +/-" featuring a signed cross-track error which shows
for a leg and also aggregated for an entire race on which side of the leg a competitor stayed on
average. Currently, the "side" is defined as viewing in the leg's direction, so "left" for a downwind
leg is the same side as "right" for the corresponding upwind leg.
</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="articleSubheadline">April 2014</h2>
<ul class="bulletList">
<li>China races, such as in Qingdao, may have the map background displayed at slightly wrong locations.
This is due to an intentional random transformation that Google applies to GPS locations for
China. You can circumvent this issue by switching to satellite view where the map background is displayed
correctly. <img src="images/mapsatellite.png"/>
</li>
<li>Fixed a bug that in some cases has caused the wind chart, the advantage line, the wind indicator on the map
and the leaderboard to use slightly different wind values. The problem was related to different averaging and
damping methods used for these values which has now been aligned.
</li>
<li>Fixed a bug that caused the time spent in a leg, race or regatta to always show the time at the end of the leg
if the leg has been started by the competitor at the time point queried, e.g., by the time slider. While this
did not have any serious effects in live mode, for replay races this left the leg time and race time constant
at the total time spent so far up to the end of the last leg the competitor had started at that time.
</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="articleSubheadline">March 2014</h2>
<ul class="bulletList">
<li>Added a new setting for a leaderboard called "Show added scores". Using this feature one
can display added scores for each leaderboard entry. An added score is the sum over all scores
from the first column to the current column. One can describe it as an intermediate overall score.
This feature can be used to know the score until a specific race while another race is live and
constantly changes the overall score.</li>
<li>Added tooltips for leaderboard settings.</li>
<li>Fixed HighPointOverall scheme to also break a tie by looking at the ranks of the last regatta.</li>
<li>Progress indicator when expanding a race in the RaceBoard view</li>
<li>Leaderboard column "GPS Lag" shows how far a competitor's GPS signal lags behind the average
tracking quality. A background color bar classifies into good/ok/bad (green/yellow/red).</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="articleSubheadline">February 2014</h2>
<ul class="bulletList">
<li>Fixed an issue with boat rotation on Safari browsers</li>
<li>Maneuver analysis now counts tacks and jibes based on wind
at boat position and not based on leg type; subsequently,
penalty circle analysis is now based on a tack and a jibe
in close succession instead of a full circle.</li>
<li>Regatta rank and overall rank in competitor chart of leaderboard panel
has been fixed; it did erroneously display the rank of the particular
race, not the regatta/overall rank after that race.</li>
<li>Regatta overview now also displays all regatta leaderboards</li>
<li>Boat colors match tail colors</li>
<li>When selecting boats in leaderboard, de-selected boats' tails turn grey</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="articleSubheadline">January 2014</h2>
<ul class="bulletList">
<li>Boat movement animated smoothly</li>
<li>Start and Finish line show line parameters (length, angle to wind,
advantage) when mouse hovers over them</li>
<li>Start line has a count-down indicator displayed next to it
before the start. The count-down is also displayed underneath the time
slider</li>
<li>Competitor and Wind charts show pre-start data where possible</li>
<li>Competitors can be assigned a fixed color which they will keep
for all races in a regatta</li>
<li>By default, videos are now shown in a moveable, resizable box embedded in
the web page. For a two screen setup, the embedded box can be popped out to a
dedicated browser window.</li>
<li>Official score corrections for historic races are only applied after
the respective competitor finished the race. Therefore, in-between race
scores now correspond with tracking, regardless of final corrected score.</li>
<li>By using negative playback speed (e.g., -1), replays can be run backwards.</li>
