Hi! Integrating GPS tracking into sporting events is a great idea to provide real-time location data for participants. This is especially valuable in mass events like marathons or cycling races, where navigation and safety are key factors.
When it comes to choosing devices and programs, the first thing to consider is the needs of your event. For particularly long events, you'll need devices with long battery life. Signal quality and frequency also play a role. In my experience, devices with high sensitivity and real-time update capability are most effective. I recently came across an interesting article on this topic, and here's a link to it for those who want a deeper understanding of the mechanisms and capabilities:
