  Tracemyworld SA is a Swiss technology company that is developing an innovative Web 2.0 portal with advanced graphic visualization and animation to support and enhance outdoor activities, such as cycling, mountain biking, running, skiing, trekking, jogging, sailing and so on.

  The services are delivered primarily through the website, which offers the following functionalities (the list is not exhaustive):

  * accept and store GPS data, gathered with the device sold by TMW, or with any GPS logger

  * show a full, real-time, multi-user replay (built by our proprietary animation engine) of the performances recorded, on a 2D map enhanced by an accurate elevation profile

  * edit existing routes in order to change or add paths, pictures and points of interest

  * create new routes from scratch with an automatic elevation profile

  * analyze the workout to show burnt calories, covered distance, time spent, speed, elevation. Split the route in sectors with intermediates and neutralized areas. Compare the performance with other workouts and plan next activities to reach specific goals

  * design, build, open and promote your own races, both real and virtual

  * build and manage virtual teams

  These functionalities are unified by the underlying concept of a game, based on a point reward system that takes into account users' workouts and managerial abilities. Points can be used by customers to purchase products related to the sports world.

  The website capabilities may be augmented by monitoring the heart rate during each workout, to assess the training progression. There are other interesting medical applications of TMW functionalities, for instance the appropriate planning of rehabilitation programmes.

  The Web application offers a lot of benefits in terms of innovation and advertising potential in the tourism and public transport fields.

  By creating ad-hoc routes, with associated points of interest, descriptions and pictures, travel and tourism agencies can promote more efficiently and in a new, engaging way, specific itineraries, places and geographic regions. Similarly, the path of public means of transport can be shown directly on a map, with real-time feedback on their actual position.

  TMW provides additional and tailored services to companies and public institutions in the IT domain, most notably related to the following areas of interest: emerging Web 2.0 technologies, GPS/geographic data gathering, editing, managing and display, data analysis algorithms.
