Maps for Different Forms of Orienteering
MAPS FOR DIFFERENT FORMS OF ORIENTEERING László Zentai Eötvös Loránd University, Pázmány Péter sétány 1/A H-1117 Budapest, Hungary [email protected] Abstract: Orienteering became a worldwide sport in the last 25-30 years. Orienteering maps are one of the very few types of maps that have the same specifications all over the world. Orienteering maps are special, because to make them suitable for orienteering the map makers have to be familiar not only with the map specifications, but also with the rules and traditions of the sport. The early period of orienteering maps was the age of homemade maps. Maps were made by orienteers using available tourist or topographic maps and only after the availability of cheaper reproduction techniques started the process of special field- working. The International Orienteering Federation (IOF) was formed in 1961. The Map Commission (MC) of the IOF has introduced different specifications for the official disciplines (before 2000 the ski-orienteering and foot-orienteering were the only official disciplines). The last version of the specification, the International Standard for Orienteering Maps (ISOM) was published in 2000 and included specifications for foot- orienteering, ski-orienteering, mountain-bike orienteering. A new format, the sprint competition, required new map specifications (ISSOM) which were finalized and published in 2007. The aim of orienteering map specifications is to provide rules that can accommodate many different types of terrain around the world and various forms of orienteering. We can use the experience of the official disciplines for developing new specifications: the official disciplines and formats were developed in the past 30 years (most of them are even newer).

The Science of Paddling, Pt. 1
The Science of Paddling, Part 1 Shawn Burke, Ph.D. ([email protected]) As an engineer I find paddling not only fun, but technically fascinating. Spending hours at a time on the ergometer banking hours for the General Clinton 70-miler has given me time to ponder why canoes do what they do (and to contemplate why I’m so slow, but that’s another story). This is the first of what could turn out to be a multi-part series on the science underlying paddling, where we consider topics of (hopefully) general interest in paddling physics, exercise physiology, and materials technology. So, here goes… Q: Why Isn’t a C-2 Twice as Fast as a C-1? I mean all you tandem paddlers have, well, two paddlers. So why aren’t you twice as fast as me in my C-1? Our canoes move through the water as the result of force we apply through our paddles, with reaction forces transmitted through our bodies into the hull via our torso and legs. This is an embodiment of Newton’s Third Law: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The water exerts a retarding force against the hull known as drag that is constantly trying to slow us down. While the details are rather complex, requiring that one solve vector nonlinear partial differential equations, drag can be considered far more intuitively as just a force that resists our efforts in linear proportion to velocity at very low speeds, and as a power of velocity at higher speeds.

Find Yourself
Find Yourself: Maps, GPS & Geocache Introduction • When I created the title for this presentation several months ago I had only a glimmer of how many topics I would be hitting on so perhaps I should have called this presentation • Find Yourself: Cartography, Types of Maps, Map Software, Compasses, GPS ,Field-Expedient Direction Finding, Bearings, True-North, Declinations, Contours, GPS, Orienteering, Geocaching. • Buckle In: This is going to be a lot of information but we will blow right through some difficult subjects to try to hit on all of the topics within the timeframe. You can always research more about a topic later. Cartography (from Greek Χάρτης, khartes = papyrus (paper) and graphein = to write) is the study and practice of making maps. Combining science, aesthetics, and technique, cartography builds on the premise that reality can be modeled in ways that communicate spatial information effectively. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartography A history of map making : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/map The future of paper maps: http://tinyurl.com/4xm6onj Geographic Information Systems: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZFmAAHBfOU 5 Types of Maps Resource Topographical Political http://www.learnnc.org/lp/media/maps/usa_toporelief_1968_l.jpg http://rredc.nrel.gov/wind/pubs/atlas/maps/chap2/gifs/map2-1.gif Environmental http://politicalmaps.org/wp-content/themes/mimbo2.1/images/red-state.gif Economic http://www.lewisbamboo.com/climate4.gif http://special.pacificresearch.org/pub/sab/entrep/2004/econ_freedom/images/us_map1.gif Some types of Map Software Popular Online Maps You can download Free topographical maps from the USGS Map Store at http://store.usgs.gov Offline Map Apps.

Newsletter Fall 2018
Northwest Chapter WCHA Fall Newsletter October 2018 Beautiful Manning, whatever the weather! Scattered rain and grim weather forecasts didn’t discourage Northwest Chapter members as they gathered at British Columbia’s Manning Park for this year’s Fall Meet, September 13-16. With woolies, toques, rain gear and tarps, (as well as buttoned-down tents, trailers and motor homes!) the group was well-prepared for bad weather, and especially appreciative of the sunny times! Over 30 people attended this Meet, despite the weather, with many arriving to set up camp and enjoy an extra day of canoeing on Thursday. Firewood brought by Canadian members kept the enclosed shelter building a place to warm up and gather all weekend, and many people did their cooking under the adjacent covered area. The new flush toilets, dish washing sink and warm shelter made deluxe accommodations for cold weather camping. President Craig Dupler’s schedule allowed flexible time for boating and hiking, as well as gathering times for presentations. For an interesting boating activity, he introduced canoe orienteering, explaining the use of the compass rose as used on sailing and other vessels. Each of the 32 points on the compass rose indicates 11.25 degrees, and magnetic compass use must be corrected for local deviation. Craig provided compasses, maps with a marked course, and bearings to be calculated, with the clue that local deviation could be deduced by a sun sighting and compass bearing at noon (or 1:04 pm that day.) Unfortunately, weather conditions precluded sun sightings this weekend, but happily for the enthusiastic canoeists, the orienteering course is ready to utilize at another Meet.
