  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION Trail orienteering (TrailO, also precision orienteering or PreO) is one of four orienteering sports authorized by the International Orienteering Federation (IOF). It’is a sport offered to people with widely different physical abilities, including those with severely restricted mobility, who all compete on equal terms. Competitors move along a track or marked route and study clusters of control markers placed in the terrain. They are issued with a very detailed map, and control descriptions. With these aids they must decide which (if any) of the markers relates to the feature depicted by the centre of the circle. Movement up and down the track is permitted but no one may approach the control markers in the terrain. TrailO is a challenging event for foot orienteers as well as those who can't manage the physical challenge of regular orienteering. Several of the competitors in the Open class at WTOC are also top orienteers in FootO, and current world champion Thierry Gueorgiou was a European TrailO Champion a few years back. It's also a great training exercise and should improve your map and terrain interpretation skills. European Championships in trail orienteering have been organised every year since 1994. The first ever World Cup in trail orienteering was held in 1999, and the inaugural World Trail Orienteering Championships were organised in 2004 (Västerås, Sweden). The World Championships are organised every year. COMPETITION TYPES PreO________________________________________________________ __________ PreO is the traditional form of trail orienteering. Competitors are given a map at the start. The locations of the controls, the start and the finishing line are marked on the map, as in traditional orienteering.

  • The New Speciafication of Orienteering Maps
    Proceedings, 7th International Conference on Cartography and GIS, 18-23 June 2018, Sozopol, Bulgaria ISSN: 1314-0604, Eds: Bandrova T., Konečný M. ISOM2017: THE NEW SPECIFICATION OF ORIENTEERING MAPS (AN INSIGHT) László Zentai László ZENTAI; Department of Cartography and Geoinformatics, ELTE Eötvös Loránd University, Budapest, Hungary; Address: Pázmány Péter sétány 1/A, 1117 Budapest, Hungary; Tel. +36 1 372 2975, E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Orienteering maps are one of the very few maps where the map specification is internationally standardised. As orienteering maps are a kind of sport goods, the standardisation of these cartographic products was a must to guarantee the fairness of the sport. The latest specification of (forest) orienteering maps was published in 2000. Although there were no urgent issues, the development of the sport and the IT technologies required regular revision of the map specification. After the release of the previous International Specification on Orienteering Maps (ISOM), a new form of event, the sprint format was developed. As sprint events are regularly organised in urban environment (park, or downtown area), a new maps specification was developed in the first decade of the 20th century (ISSOM = International Specification of Sprint Orienteering Maps). The recent update of ISOM originally would include both specifications (ISOM and ISSOM), but finally only the ISOM was the focus. Keywords: orienteering maps, topographic maps, standardization, legend, cartographic symbols WHY ORIENTEERING MAPS ARE SO SPECIAL? History Orienteering maps are one of the very few maps where the map specification is internationally standardised. The standardisation was a relatively fast process, although the sport itself is more than 100 years old; there was not too much focus on maps and practically nothing on the standardisation in the first half of the progress.

    International Orienteering Federation On-line Newsletter Issue 3 – September 2010 Elite ski orienteers support change and innovation PHOTO: PIRJO VALJANEN PIRJO PHOTO: BY ERIK BORG Eivind Tonna is convinced ski orienteering would provide added value to the Olympic Winter Games. – The recently introduced sprint and mixed sprint relay formats would suit the Olympic program very well. GPS tracking and biometric data bring the drama of the competition to spectators and media and the events fit nicely into a 45-minute TV broadcast, Eivind Tonna says. He is a top athlete and the leader of the IOF Athletes’ Commission in Ski Orienteering. The IOF has applied for ski orienteering to be included in the programme of the 2018 Olympic Winter Games featuring sprint and mixed sprint relay, with two athletes of each gender. – I can't really see any other sports that can be better candidates than ski orienteering but hard work is needed to succeed. I will do my utmost to promote ski orienteering in the best way I can. Eivind Tonna is the chairman of the Ski Orienteering Athletes’ Commission.
