eScoring

Always use the latest version of GliderScore for eScoring.

GliderScore provides for remote score input by smartphone.

Here is how it works

Here is a short video contributed by Mike Vos that explains eScoring very well.

The competition is created on the PC.
Data is sent from the PC to the GliderScore server.
Pilots access their data from the server and enter scores.
When a pilot taps 'Submit', their score is sent to the server.
The scorekeeper downloads scores from the server to the PC.
Score calculations happen automatically.
When all scores are in for a round, the scorekeeper re-uploads the data.
This puts up-to-date results onto the server.
The pilots can now see their current ranking and scores.

There is no direct connection between the PC and the phones.

The PC sends to the GliderScore server and receives from the GliderScore server.
The phones send to the GliderScore server and receive from the GliderScore server.

Why use this system?

Reduced chance of errors from poor writing.
The QRCode has to be scanned only once.
Pilots/officials can enter scores at the landing spots.
Memory lapse errors are eliminated.
No more time wasting trips along the flight line to submit scores.
Fewer delays from gathering scores. Entry is quick and easy.
Built in checks to ensure validity.
Can continue with manual scoring if all else fails.
Pilots can review their scores on their phones.

Available for all glider competitions.

As organiser, you will take these steps. More details in following tabs.

Make sure that the flying field has good mobile/cell phone coverage.
If coverage is poor for some ISPs, you might have to establish a wifi hotspot.
Create the competition and the draw as usual.
Make sure that all the scoring parameters are set correctly.
These parameters will be uploaded.
Make sure that the QRCode Setup is correct for eScoring.
You only have to do this once.
Print the Score Record cards.
These provide a QRCode that, when scanned, connects pilot to the server.
Upload the data to the server.
Download scores once the competition gets under way.
Check for missing scores.
Publish results.

Go to the For Organisers tab for more detailed information.

As a pilot, you will

Bring a smartphone to the competition.
The phone must have a QRCode scanning app installed.
       - Android phones
          - QR Droid is very good.
       - iPhones
          - You can use the built in feature of the iPhone camera.
          - Chrome for IOS sounds good.
            It has a built in QR scanner and tabs that should make
            handling multiple pilots on the one phone very easy.
          - Opera Mini for IOS sounds good.
            It also has a built in QR scanner (button is in the address bar).
Scan the QRCode that is on your Score Record.
This logs you in to the server and loads your master scoring page in your web browser.
This web page takes you to an individual scoring page for each flight.
After each flight
Write your score details on your Score Record.
Enter your scores on the phone and press 'Submit'.

Go to the For Pilots tab for more detailed information.

eScoring for Organisers

Here is everything that you need to know as an organiser.

The top half of this menu is for normal use.

There are two ways of collecting and publishing score data.

The automatic method and the manual Download and Upload methods.

Click on the tabs to learn more about these methods.

'View Missing Scores' creates a report showing pilots who need to submit scores.

Score Records can be viewed or printed from this screen.

To learn about the other items click on the 'Other Options' tab.

I will not go over the steps for setting up a competition, but
it is particularly important to have all your scoring parameters set
before taking the next steps. The scoring parameters are uploaded!

To create a backup system.
The easiest way to do this is to make a copy of the entire C:\GliderScore6 folder on a USB stick.
If the main computer fails, use the USB stick to copy the entire C:\GliderScore6 folder to another PC.
Then open the competition and download all scores from the server.

You cannot create a backup system by exporting the competition and importing to another PC.
On import, the competition gets a new Competition ID and will not work with the data on the server.

Hint: If a pilot gets confused by the system, have him re-scan his QRCode
and start again. This will totally refresh his data from the server.

These are the steps before uploading.

Of course the draw needs to have been completed in its final form.

Set the target time.
Set the timing decimal places.
Set the group score decimal places.
Set the landing table to be used.
Set the Flight Score Deduction:
None; Late Landing; Motor Run; Height Penalty
Configure the QRCode for eScoring (see section below)
Go to the Reports Menu and print the Score Records (see section below)

This data is all uploaded and is needed by the system.

Click on the 'Auto Download/Upload' tab to learn about automating the eScoring system.
Click on the 'Manual Download/Upload' tab to learn how to do it all manually.

Configure the QRCode for eScoring

Access this QRCode Setup screen from the Main Menu.

Click on the green 'Reset for eScoring' button.
Click on the 'Save' button.

This step is now complete.
It never has to be done again.

Go to the Reports Menu and print the Score Records

Click on the 'Score Records' button.

You can also print the 'Score Records' from the eScoring page.

Now you will see this screen

Select to print QRCodes.

You can also check on the QRCode Setup here.

The Score Records will look like this

The columns that print depend on your competition setup.

The URL encoded in the QRCode is written out in full.
You can type this into a browser window and it will all work.

The Score Records will print four to a page for up to 10 rounds drawn.
The print will be two to a page if more than 10 rounds are drawn.

The Score Records are now ready to be handed out to pilots.

Click on the 'Manual Upload' tab after you have finished reading this page.

Automatic Download/Upload

This feature automates the manual eScoring downloads and uploads by running both at a pre-set time interval.

It frees up a huge amount of time for the CD when combined with eScoring and the Digital Timer.
The CD's scoring duty is reduced to following up any pilots who have not submitted their scores.
The CD can do this during any spare time. The rest of the time is available for managing the competition.

How does it work?

Set the 'Competition Status' to Private or Public.
Choose a time interval from the 'Repeat cycle every' drop down box.
Click on Start to begin the process. The Start button becomes the Cancel button.
The download/upload process will begin immediately.
The 'Pilots with Missing Scores' table is updated after every download.
Hint: Put a tick against retired pilots so that you do not ask them for scores.
The last flight group with scores submitted is shown below the words 'Pilots with Missing Scores'.
No work can be done within GliderScore while Automatic Download/Upload screen remains open.
Close the screen, do whatever needs to be done and then re-start the process.

What about Re-flights?

If a pilot is granted a re-flight he must be moved from his original flight group to his re-flight group.
Close the Automatic Download/Upload screen.
In the Scoring screen, move the pilot to his re-flight group ('Move Pilot to Another Group' button).

There are two methods that can be used to update the re-flight scoring data.
The pilot submits his score card to the CD. The re-flight details are manually entered on the computer.
If the change to flight groups is uploaded in time, the pilot can submit scores using the eScoring (phone) method.

What will stop the process?
The process will stop if a score is downloaded and there is no corresponding entry in the Scores table.
This can happen if a pilot is moved to another group and the online database is not updated (by running an upload).
If this happens a special screen displays with all of the scoring data. This must be handled manually.

Shown below is the Automatic Download/Upload screen.

See further below for the two ways to open this screen.

The Automatic Download/Upload screen can be accessed from the eScoring menu (left) or from the Scoring screen (right).

Manual UploadManual DownloadManual Upload Scores

Upload Data

You can upload data as many times as it takes to get the right data on to the server.
You can re-upload after downloading scores.
The data from scores entered will also be re-uploaded.
You might want to re-upload if scores have been changed on the PC after downloading.
This will make the scores on the server identical to the official scores on the PC.
You cannot re-upload data if there are scores on the server that have not been downloaded.
That would risk loss of data. These un-downloaded scores must be downloaded first.
Each competition has a unique CompID code. This keeps every competition separate on the server.
Each competition can be Private or Public. If Public, the results and scores will be viewable on the
GliderScore website.
The QRCode encodes the website URL, the CompID and the (GliderScore internal) pilot number.
With this data, the system is able to find everything it needs on the server.

Upload from the eScoring menu
(see also Upload from the Scoring screen, below)

Click on the 'Upload to Server' button.
You will be able to select a range of rounds to upload.
Normally this will be for all rounds.

If you want your results and scores viewable on the GliderScore
website, make the Competition Status = Public when uploading.
You can change the Competition Status by uploading with a different Status.

The upload is much more that just the draw.
A lot of other information about your competition is
also uploaded for validation purposes.
This includes the landing table.

It is highly recommended to use a landing table with no more than 50 line entries.

Upload from the Scoring screen

Click the Upload icon in the Scoring screen to upload data.

Very useful when posting progressive results at the end of each round.

You can perform most functions without ever leaving the Scoring screen.

If the Competition Status was set to 'Public', all uploads will also be Public
until changed in the eScoring screen.

Click on the 'Download to PC' tab after you have read this page.

Download to PC

Download data as frequently as you like.

All scores within the range of rounds selected will be downloaded
even if the data has been downloaded before.

The data downloaded will not overwrite any scores on the PC.
Manually entered and amended scores are protected from change.
All scores can be manually changed on the PC in case of error.

It is much quicker if you only download one or two rounds at a time.

You can download from two places in the system.
- The eScoring Menu, and
- The Scoring screen.
We will look at both further down the page.

At the end of a download
- Scores are automatically re-calculated.
- A screen showing pilots with missing scores will appear.
     You should pay special attention to this screen.
- If pilots have been moved from their original groups on the PC,
     they may enter data on their phone and it will not match the
     expected record on the PC. There is a special screen for that.

Click on the 'Upload Scores' tab for more vital information.

Downloading using the eScoring menu

Click on the 'Download to PC' button.
You will be able to select a range of rounds to download.

The download process will start.

Downloading using the Scoring Screen

Click on the 'Download' icon.
You will be able to select a range
of rounds to download.

The download process will start.

About the Scoring screen.
There is a new column called 'Updated'.
It will have a value of 'True' if a score,
even a zero score, has updated the
system. Otherwise, a value of 'False'.

If no score has been entered,
clicking in the Updated column
will toggle the value from 'False'
to 'True' and back again.

You won't see this column unless the
'Show/Hide Columns → Updated' checkbox is ticked.

Click on the 'Upload Scores' tab for more vital information.

Upload Scores to Server

Remember that scores are automatically calculated after download.

At the end of scoring for a round
When you have ALL the scores for a round it is time to upload them to the server.
That way they are available to all pilots.

The upload to server procedure is exactly the same as before.
The only difference is that the data now contains official score information.
It is best to upload regularly.

After the upload of scores, the pilots will be able to see results like this.
Notice that the blue text at the top shows 'Scores updated'.
Before the upload, this would have been 'Score recorded'.

Click on the 'For Pilots' tab after you have read this page.

Score Input Methods

As the organiser, you can always input scores on the PC. The system will never overwrite these scores.
Pilots always input their scores using the same screen, but there are three ways to access that screen.

Use a smartphone or tablet and scan the QR Code on the Score Record
Use a shared computer running eScoringInterfaceExe.exe
Use any device by going to gliderscore.com/escoreinterface.aspx
This is very suitable where a number of pilots share one device.

Using a Smartphone
Scanning the QR Code on the Score Card is well described in other places.
This is the usual method for pilots to access their scoring screen
and does not involve the organisers to provide any resources other than the Score Cards.

Entering scores with a shared computer

You can set up a separate computer (connected to the internet) for pilots who do not have smartphones.
Pilots will be able to enter their scores by using a small program called eScoringInterface.exe.
This program can run on any internet-connected PC. It does not need GliderScore on the PC.
It can be in any folder.

eScoringInterface.exe is available for download by clicking this button.

Running eScoringInterface.exe brings up this screen.

Key in a name for your competition and the CompID.
The CompID can be found on the Score Record cards.

Click on 'Open User Form' to see this screen.

The pilot enters his pilot number (from the QR Code
string on his Score Record card) and clicks
on 'Connect'.

His scoring screen opens and from this point
he can interact with it in exactly the same way as
he would if using a smartphone.

When finished he clicks on 'Clear' to clear
the screen, ready for the next person.

Closing this form closes the program.

Log on to gliderscore.com/escoreinterface/aspx
This method can be used for any internet connected device, including a PC.

Logging on brings up this screen. Enter the CompID from any Score Record and press Submit

You will then have this screen where you can enter any Pilot ID.
The Pilot ID is the number at the end of the QR Code string on the Score Record.
Press on 'Score' to get the pilot's scoring screen.

From here the pilot can select the round for scoring
and go ahead and enter scores.
Enter another Pilot ID to see their scoring screen.

Reports - QR Code List

From the Reports Menu you can print a QR Code List similar to this one.

Scanning the QR Code with a smartphone establishes connection to the eScoring system.

eScoring for Pilots

In this section

Scanning the QRCode

Entering scores with smartphone

Entering scores with a shared computer

Entering scores using any shared device

Scoring example for F3K

Scoring example for F3B

View Results on smartphone

Pilots need a smartphone with a QRCode scanning app installed.
Those without a smartphone can use a 'communal' computer (see below).

I have found QRDroid to be excellent on Android.
For iPhone/iPad, the built in scanner should work. Otherwise Quick Scan is worth trying.

There is no other software required provided the phone has a web browser installed.

Pilots also need their Score Record with their QRCode.

Scanning the QRCode

When the pilot scans the QRCode, it takes him to a web page like this.

The pilot can see exactly when he is drawn to fly.

- For F3K and F5K the task is shown against each round.
- For F3B Distance, the ID is shown.
- For F3B, F3F and F3Q Speed, the flying order is shown.
- Where Lanes are used, the Lane is shown.

Only one flight group is open for score entry.
A score must be entered for the open flight group before
the next one will become available.

Pressing the 'Enter' button takes the pilot to the score entry screen.

Entering scores with smartphone

There are separate screens designed for each competition type.

With F3J there will be a 'Late Landing' box.
With F5J there will be a 'Height Penalty' box.
F3K, F5B and others all have their own special screens.

When the pilot scans the QRCode, it takes him to a web page like this one (on the left).
This page is for F3J.

There are dropdown boxes for minutes, seconds, landing and late landing.

What is not so obvious is that these
dropdown boxes scroll both ways.

So, if you want a high value, pull down.
As the image on the right shows, the initial
value of zero is actually in the middle of a
double list of possible values.

You can enter a zero score with this form.
Press Submit and you will be asked to
confirm by pressing Submit again.
This will record the zero score.

Tap the '< Back' button to go to
the previous score entry page.

Tap the 'Back to list' button to go to
the list of Rounds/Groups.

Tap the 'Next >' button to go to
the next score entry page.

The Back and Next button are enabled or disabled depending on circumstances.

Entering scores with a shared computer

You can set up a separate computer (connected to the internet) for pilots who do not have smartphones.
Pilots will be able to enter their scores by using a small program called eScoringInterface.exe.
This program can run on any internet-connected PC. It does not need GliderScore on the PC.
It can be in any folder.

eScoringInterface.exe is available for download by clicking this button.

Running eScoringInterface.exe brings up this screen.

Key in a name for your competition and the CompID.
The CompID can be found on the Score Record cards.

Click on 'Open User Form' to see this screen.

The pilot enters his pilot number (from the QR Code
string on his Score Record card) and clicks
on 'Connect'.

His scoring screen opens and from this point
he can interact with it in exactly the same way as
he would if using a smartphone.

When finished he clicks on 'Clear' to clear
the screen, ready for the next person.

Closing this form closes the program.

Entering Scores with any Internet Connected Device

This method can be used for any internet connected device, including a PC.
It is suitable when several pilots share the same device.

Log on to gliderscore.com/escoreinterface.aspx
Logging on brings up this screen. Enter the CompID from any Score Record and press Submit

You will then have this screen where you can enter any Pilot ID.
The Pilot ID is the number at the end of the QR Code string on the Score Record.
Press on 'Score' to get the pilot's scoring screen.

From here the pilot can select the round for scoring
and go ahead and enter scores.
Enter another Pilot ID to see their scoring screen.

After entering scores for a round, the scoring screen for the next round becomes available.

You can View scores for previous rounds or Enter scores for the next round.

Scoring example for F3K

The right hand image is the score entry form for Task D.
One tap fills in all the scores up to the button tapped.

Scoring example for F3B (F3Q is very similar)

View Results on Phone

Details of the pilot's flight group are always available.
Initially all flight group pilot scores are zero. As scores are submitted, a refresh of this screen will show the submitted scores.
The system also shows the Points total at this stage.

Normally, at the end of scoring for a round the CD will upload results to the server.
That way they are available to all pilots.
This updates the flight group data with the normalized scores and the progressive position of every pilot.

Reset Scores to Zero

Resets score values to zero from and including a selected
round and group.
This can be for the whole competition.

The reset happens optionally with -
- the on-line database
- the local database
- both databases

Using this process, you can allow all pilots to practice
on-line score entry before a competition. Then, before
the competition begins, make all scores zero in readiness
for entering the real scores.

The process can also be used, particularly at competitions
that run for more than one day, to clear scores from a
particular round and group to the end of the competition.
This may be needed if pilots enter scores overnight by mistake.

Remove Competition from server.

Use this to remove all traces of the competition from the server.

Open / Close (online scoring)
Allows control of exactly when pilots can and cannot enter scores.

Close online scoring at the end of the day's flying.

Open online scoring at the start of the next day's flying.

Backup / Restore (online scores)

Backup
Create a backup copy of ALL score data for the competition.
If there is a pre-existing backup, you
will be asked to confirm before overwriting it.

Restore
Backup data can be restored to the main data table at any time.
All data in the main data table will be replaced with the backup data.

Create Link

Use this to generate a link that you can share via email or the web.
The link, when clicked, will open up your competition on-line without having to find it using the drop down list.

About eScoring

This module in GliderScore came about after it was suggested to me by Jim Monaco.
Jim provided support and invaluable advice to get me going and without his help
getting the project started would have been much more difficult.

At the time I was in contact with Chris Bajorek and he enthusiastically agreed to be
a tester. He has been fantastic with suggestions along the way and has stuck with it
even though at times it wasn't looking so good. The amount of time and effort that he
has put into it has been enormous.

Chris spread the word to Lee Wolfe who also came aboard as a tester. He has perhaps
been the bravest of us all. He put the system into use in actual competitions long
before I thought it was ready. But this proved to be invaluable thanks to the great
feedback and suggestions from the pilots. The form of many of the user interface elements
are due to their suggestions.

A person who will be surprised to be mentioned here is Marcus Stent. He made one comment
that sparked a change in direction. He commented "Is there anything to prevent scores
being entered in the wrong round?". At the time the method of entry was to scan a QRCode
from a score card, so my answer was no, there was nothing to prevent that. This led to the
page that lists the flight groups in order and only allows the next flight group without
scores to be opened for scoring. Thanks Marcus.

Fairly late on the scene was Fabien Gagné. He joined our little testing group and immediately
put the system into use in actual competition. I should say that this was in Canada and his
winter competition started and finished in sub-zero conditions. His input has also been very
valuable.

The person who is to be thanked the most however is my wife, Helen.
She has been extremely understanding and supportive of me while I worked away for long hours
on something that I was very determined to finish. She kept the house going while I did
nothing other than sit at the computer and beaver away at the project.
So thank you my darling.

Also worth mentioning are all the people who have posted answers to questions or created
lesson materials on all aspects of programming.
At the start of this process I knew very little, actually nothing, about creating an interactive
web application. I now know a lot more, but still very little really.
Without these people who willingly share their knowledge this would never have been finished.

And finally Microsoft.
Microsoft provides, for no charge, the amazing program Visual Studio 2015 that was used to create
this eScoring system (and GliderScore and Digital Timer). For server side management they also
provide SQL Server Management Studio, again, for no charge. This is another fantastic program
that makes interacting with the on-line database for development purposes easy. It provides all the
tools that I need.
Thank you Microsoft. Without your generosity this would not have happened.

Scoring Interface

GliderScore provides assistance to those wanting to create electronic score collection software.

The ability to download the Scoring data to a file.
This file can then be uploaded into the score collection database.

The ability to print score cards with QRCodes.
The QRCodes provide a way to identify where to put the scores being collected.

The ability to upload scores from a delimited file.
The scores collected can be imported into GliderScore from a .csv file created from the score collection database.
All scoring calculations are done as a part of the same process.

CreateFile / ImportFile functions

Click on the 'eScoring' button to open this screen.
The second tab is 'Electronic Scoring Interface'.

Download Scoring data to a .csv file

Choose the location and file name for the downloaded data.

There are 15 fields in the data file. 6 key fields, 8 data fields and 1 Name field.

Key Fields Data Fields Name Field
CompNo Data1 PilotName
TaskNo Data2
RoundNo Data3
GroupNo Data4
ReFlightNo Data5
PilotNo Data6
Data7
Penalty

The key fields contain the data needed to identify the scoring row.
The data fields are used to save the collected scoring data.
The pilot name field contains the pilot name to make the file human friendly.

The following table shows where the scoring data has to go.
For F3K, record as many times as required for the task. All other times should be zero (0).

Description Data1 Data2 Data3 Data4 Data5 Data6 Data7 Penalty
Duration 0 FlightTime 0 FlightTime2* 0 0 Landing 0 or Penalty
F3J - Duration with Late Landing 0 FlightTime 0 FlightTime2* 0 Late landing penalty Landing 0 or Penalty
Duration with Motor Run 0 FlightTime 0 FlightTime2* 0 Motor run Landing 0 or Penalty
F5J Duration with Height Penalty 0 FlightTime 0 FlightTime2* 0 Height Landing 0 or Penalty
Distance (Lap count) Laps flown 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 or Penalty
Speed (Time elapsed) 0 FlightTime 0 FlightTime2* 0 0 0 0 or Penalty
F5B Laps flown FlightTime 0 FlightTime2* 0 Motor run Landing 0 or Penalty
F3K FlightTime FlightTime2 FlightTime3 FlightTime4 FlightTime5 FlightTime6 FlightTime7 0 or Penalty

*FlightTime2 only applies where there are two timekeepers and both times are to be recorded.
Otherwise make this field zero (0).

Flight times are formatted as mmss.sss.

Landing values must be values from the (Distance column) of the Landing table being used for the competition.
It is recommended that a Landing table where both Distance and Points are the same be used.
In this case, mark the landing tape with the landing score, and collect that value.

Import Scoring Data from a properly formatted .csv file

Select the .csv file that you updated by browsing to it's location.

A number of data validation checks are then carried out.
The import will be cancelled if any of these fail, and an error report will be produced.

Once the import is completed a full re-calculation of all scores is carried out.

Remember that any existing data will be overwritten by the imported data.

Score Check

The Score Check button appears on both the Competition Setup screen and on the Scoring screen.
Clicking this button brings up the screen shown at right.
(This screen is not appropriate for F5K and instead it is named 'Score Details'. See below for more.)
The Score Check screen allows you to quickly find scores

that may have been missed, or

that may have data entry errors.

Items of interest are coloured -

Red - equal to or below lower limit.

Blue - equal to or greater than upper limit.

Grey - value is within limits.

Depending on the type of competition, you might want to check for

Group scores that are very low (or zero).

Duration times that are very low or unusually high.

Landing scores that are very low.

Laps flown (F3B Distance) that are very low or very high.

Speed times (F3B or F3F) that are very low or very high.

Motor Run times that are very low or very high.

Start heights (F5J) that are very low or very high.

The items that can be set depend on the type of competition that is being checked.
Un-check any item that is of no interest.

By un-checking 'All Pilots', it is possible to quickly cycle through each pilot in turn by clicking on the up and down arrows.
Individual rounds can be isolated in a similar way.

Score Details F5K

For F5K, the button is renamed to 'Score Details' on both the Competition Setup screen and on the Scoring screen.

Clicking on this button -
- In the Scoring screen, all score details for the current flight group are shown.
- In the Competition Setup screen, all score details for the competition are shown.
This makes it easy to check any pilot's data for errors or omissions.
It is exactly the same as the 'Flight Scores' report.
The 'Flight Scores' report has options to group and/or focus on particular pilots.

Best Flights

Best Flight Points, or
Best Laps, or
Best Speed.

The Best Flights list is available on the Scoring screen. Click on the drop down box to expand the list. Click anywhere to close the list.

The list shows points scored in order from best to worst. It also shows the flight score elements that went into the points scores.

By default the best 50 points scores are listed but the complete list can be shown by clicking on the last entry.

The list is instantly updated whenever a score is entered or changed.

For multi-task competitions (F3B, F3Q) the list covers the task being scored.
