ORC представила платформу RaceFlow 2.0 для автоматизации погодного скоринга в регатах

The Offshore Racing Congress is pleased to announce RaceFlow 2.0, an updated web platform that brings ORC's Weather-Routed Scoring (WRS) available for use by race committees and scoring officers. Offshore and coastal races rarely see steady conditions from start to finish. When the wind shifts or dies overnight, fixed handicap numbers often favor one end of the fleet over another. Weather-Routed Scoring solves this by simulating how each yacht sails the course through forecasted weather, producing custom Time Correction Factors (TCFs) based on the wind and current conditions boats are expected to encounter on the race. RaceFlow 2.0 pairs the ORC Velocity Prediction Program (VPP) and certificate database with the PredictWind routing engine, packing the entire workflow into a clean browser interface built specifically for event management. Built for the Scoring Desk and Race Committee RaceFlow 2.0 focuses directly on simplifying and accelerating the workflow before, during, and after a race with the following features: Sample Output & Live Links Below are interactive examples of RaceFlow 2.0 outputs: Availability RaceFlow is now available as a free service for race organizers. The ORC technical staff assists with initial event setup and allocates all necessary routing credits as well as providing help and support. Organizers planning coastal or offshore events can login at raceflow.orc.org using their ORC Sailor Services credentials, and apply directly through the platform or review the documentation. The RaceFlow 2.0 User Guide is available here. For a more complete explanation of Weather Routed Scoring, visit here. For other questions, contact the ORC technical team at .
