Choose allowed trackers
Allow phones, mobile GPS trackers, satellite devices, uploads, timing data, or any practical combination for the event format and terrain.
Organise
Run the whole event with mobile-first organiser controls
Choose which tracking devices are allowed, combine phone, mobile GPS, satellite, timing, upload, and correction sources, and keep the event moving from one live map. Participants can use the device setup that fits the race, while you avoid one of the biggest tracking headaches: handing out, collecting, charging, and replacing devices. Every organiser feature works mobile-first, so you can stay in the field and still run the full control workflow.
Switch during the race
Move a participant between tracking sources when a device fails, batteries run low, coverage changes, or an organiser decision needs a cleaner result.
Reduce cost and effort
Use participants' phones where possible and reserve dedicated or satellite trackers for the sections and competitors that really need them.
Mobile-first command
Manage it from your phone. Publish route edits, track the pack, message participants, and apply result changes from the start area, checkpoint, or the forest without extra hardware.
Operational control
One system for live event management
Route changes during the event. When the event uses mobile tracking, you can adjust the route while the race is running and keep participants aligned with the latest course.
Device logistics stay optional. Distribution and collection of trackers is often the hard part of live tracking; MapCatch lets you avoid it for many participants.
Managed service when you want it. Based on agreement, we can help run the tracking setup as a service: source selection, event setup, operational support, and post-event cleanup.
One public story. The live map, route progress, standings, arrival estimates, chat, replay, and corrections stay together even when tracking sources change, and the controls to manage it are usable on a phone.
