Navigation Games is a nonprofit organization that aims to teach urban youth orienteering skills to encourage outdoor exploration. To achieve this goal, the organization improved their own orienteering skills, created lesson plans, and taught orienteering at summer camps. They also made orienteering maps, laid the groundwork for an inter-school orienteering league, and received support from various teaching consultants, coaches, and organizations.

Headcam&GPS for Orienteering
Headcam&GPS for OrienteeringJan Kocbach
Ìý
This document summarizes a test setup for using GPS and a head-mounted camera for orienteering training. Software is used to match the recorded GPS route to an orienteering map and generate a movie showing the route on the map along with pulse and speed data. The process takes around 10 minutes of work time and 10-60 minutes of processing time to generate a video that syncs the headcam footage with an overlay of the map, route, and pulse/speed data. The concept will be tested for winter orienteering training in 2007/2008 and may also have potential for TV coverage of orienteering events.

The document provides information about an orienteering event for 8th grade students at VLUS. It discusses what orienteering is and describes a practice session and competition between advisories that will take place on the school grounds. Students will work in teams to navigate between checkpoints using maps, with different courses of varying lengths and difficulties. Skills like map reading, orientation, pace counting, and navigation will be practiced during training before the advisory versus advisory relay competition.PETA UMUM PUTRA

This document describes OpenOrienteeringMap (OOM), an open source project that uses OpenStreetMap data to automatically generate orienteering maps. OOM produces maps for both street and forest orienteering in different styles. It allows for minutely updates from OSM and generates tiles and PDFs on demand. While it currently focuses on street orienteering, the creator hopes it could one day produce maps as detailed as professionally made orienteering maps.School Orienteering

The first leg runners for a relay race all start at the same time without looking at a map first. After finishing their leg, they hand off a token like a bib or wristband to the next runner on their team. A video shows footage from the 2017 World Orienteering Relay Championships depicting runners handing off a token in the exchange zone after completing their portion of the race.Orienteering study guide

The document provides information about orienteering maps and how to navigate using them. It describes various map symbols that represent natural and man-made features like bodies of water, contours, vegetation, trails, fences and more. It includes examples of orienting a map using a compass, the sun, and surrounding landscape features. The document also provides safety tips and instructions for an orienteering field trip, including how to properly complete controls and where the rendezvous point is located.2014 09 25 safety and logistics

The document provides information for an orienteering field trip, including the schedule, safety guidelines, and logistics. Students will have training on maps and complete a team challenge in the forest. They should bring suitable clothing, food and water, watches, cell phones and fully charge devices before the trip. Safety measures include always staying with teams, knowing how to call for help, and following the safety bearing of west if lost. The field trip is on October 2 and preparation will occur through route planning and safety sessions.2014 09 23 course planning

The document provides information about an upcoming route planning and orienteering field trip. It includes a calendar of events, details about the field trip schedule and team challenge, instructions for route planning and map reading, and a study guide on navigating with a map and compass. The goal is for teams to use a map and compass to find controls in the woods and earn tickets that can be exchanged for prizes. The schedule includes training on route planning and map reading, followed by a 2 hour team challenge to locate controls and landmarks.Contours in orienteering maps

The document is about contours on orienteering maps. It defines contours as brown lines that indicate changes in elevation, with closer lines indicating steeper slopes. It describes key landforms like reentrants, which are valleys running down hills; spurs, which are extensions of hills; and saddles, which are low areas between two high points. It provides examples of contour maps and images of terrain, asking the reader to identify features, and explains how contours can help with navigation.Orienteering training 2013 fresh pond

The document proposes modeling chromatin as a computational system, where protein complexes can read and write chemical marks on chromatin in a computationally universal way, and that complex problems could theoretically be solved using biologically-sized chromatin computers by taking advantage of its massively parallel and self-modifying properties. It provides examples of how Hamiltonian path problems and arithmetic operations could be implemented using hypothetical rules operating on a chromatin tape to demonstrate the computational capabilities of such a model.Unlocking Opportunities for Talented Athletes.pdf

Editor's Notes
- #4: Orienteering is a popular European sport similar to Cross Country and Track. Unlike Cross Country and Track, however, unlike track and field, orienteering takes place in the woods. Competitors must run through the forest and find their way to different checkpoints with the aid of only a map and a compass.
