Adding and Editing Marks
You can edit the course of a tracking session at any time, whether the session is Scheduled, In progress or Finished
If the session has already started, classification and performance analytics will be automatically recalculated based on the new course layout.
Who Can Edit Marks?
Editing marks is restricted to eStela system administrators. If you are not authorized, you won’t see the editing tools.
Why Edit Marks?
There are several reasons you might want to update or adjust a course:
To improve visualization and alignment of the map
To recover missing buoy roundings, which affect real-time classification and post-race metrics
Having accurately placed marks is essential for reliable race data.
