Trakus is a great thing.
I like Beyer's idea about inviting user feedback and looking for errors that might otherwise go undetected.
Right now, they need a quality control person who has an understanding of pace figures and speed figures to review the data everyday. The 'mistakes' like Beyer mentions in the mile and 40-yard races at Tampa is a issue at other distances as well. It's all stuff that can be cleaned up and corrected. I have theories on it from all the monitoring that I will pass on to Pat when Tampa and GP's meets are done.
Inviting user feedback + a suitable quality control guy to deal with the feedback and review all the data should equal a winning formula because I think these 'mistakes' can be prevented ahead of time.
