Basic Result Service
The calculation of results in a figure skating event is the main content
of the basic result service, where the marks cannot be transferred electronically
to the calculating computer. Not only will the results be calculated and
printed, but over 90% of all printouts needed, as the event progresses,
will be provided. This includes lists of entries, starting order lists,
detailed time tables, judges working sheets, marking cards and chits as
well as classification lists and table of marks. The result service does
not include copying and distribution.
A person sitting at rink side equipped with computer and laser printer
will provide this function. This person needs an assistant to verify the
correctness of the data entry. The Program used for this service is the
"IceCalc" Software which is a product of Icecalc the company. esides the
daily fee the organising committee needs to cover travel, accommodation
and meal expenses.
Extended Result Service
Extended results service, such as electronic marks entry by each judge
as well as scoreboards, TV graphics and large scale information systems
can be offered through our co-operation with WIGE-MIC.
Additional Services
Except for draw support using computer projection all additional services
can only be offered as supplement to the basic result service package.
- Information Monitor
To supply the skating community and/or the public with current standings,
an information monitor showing the top 20 is available. If needed a monitor,
for the announcer can be installed. By default these monitors can be up
to 10 m away from the calculating computer.
- Draw Support using Computer Projection
A computer projection of the panel of judges drawn and the starting
order as the draw proceeds can be shown for the draw for the qualifying
round, the main draw for starting order and the intermediate draws. Optionally
the draw for panel of judges can be shown over the projector. The costs
can be reduced, if a SVGA projector with 1000 ANSI Lumen can be supplied.
- Publishing of Results on the Internet
IceCalc offers to publish the results on the internet and keep them
posted for one year. If the announcement is available it too can be posted
in advance of the competition. The general procedure would be to post all
changes at the end of each day. Optionally online publishing can be offered
if a telephone line is available. Since the telephone costs to connect
to the local provider vary greatly they have to be taken care of by the
organising committee.
- Diploma Printing
Diploma printing is done in two phases, first the basic layout is printed
before the event and then, after each result is final the variable data
such as name and rank are printed on the diploma paper. We offer "Elephant
Skin 110g A4" or customer supplied paper providing the laser printer can
print the sheets. Optionally a signature on paper can be scanned and printed
on each diploma.
