Tracking Map

Geo Tracks creates your live view tracking map for free

For every event Geo Tracks produces a bespoke Live View Tracking Map free of charge.

Organisers send their GPX file and what 3 word’s references of their checkpoints and Geo Tracks does the rest.

The tracking map can be shared with participants by sharing the URL or Geo Tracks can provide the code for the map to be embedded in the event website. Live tracking is also available on our Geo Tracks app.
