We are still working on the Photo Project, hoping to release a public Beta that any race can use by July 18 at the RunSignUp Symposium.
We’d like to thank Race Day Events and Focal Flame for letting us use their data and beautiful photography in this example!
Here is a video walk thru:
When you upload Photos, they will automatically appear in a new Photos Page for your Race Website:
You can click on a location and see the photos.
You can click on each photo to see a larger view and quickly scroll thru them, simply Download:
You can also share the photo on Facebook, Twitter or Pinterest:
You can also search for participants by Bib, Last or First name:
When you bring up a particular participant, you will see two sections of photos. One is from bib tags. We automatically put all photos thru Google Vision to automatically search for bib numbers. While it is only about 70% accurate, it is done in seconds. It “seeds” the photos, which encourages other participants and viewers to add their own tags and make corrections on a crowdsourced basis.
The second section is “Near” photos. This is done for the finish line (and also split points) where we automatically calculate the difference between the camera time that is put into each photo inside the camera as meta data, and the finish time posted as results onto the RaceDay Go platform.
In addition to searching on the Photos page, the photos are integrated into the Results. So you can click on a person in Results and on their individual page see a link to their photos. This page will be redone to show the photos directly on the page:
There are many more features we will be adding to the platform, so stay tuned.
