Provide a task url to display on the map.
Both individual Soaring Spot task urls and results pages are supported. If a results page is used, the task displayed will automatically be the latest one meaning the url doesn't have to be updated every day of a competition.
Examples:
Single task: https://www.soaringspot.com/en_gb/jegc2021/tasks/club/task-12-on-2021-07-23
Results page: https://www.soaringspot.com/en_gb/jegc2021/results/club
It is also possible to create and host a custom task data endpoint that follows the Task data schema.
Provide a second task url to display on the map.

It is also possible to create and host a custom task data endpoint that follows the Task data schema.
Displays an overlay on the map with the selected aircrafts distance to a lat long position.
A comma-separated string with a latitude and longitude
Example: distanceToPoint=51.7058333,-2.1319444
Only shows whitelisted gliders provided from an endpoint. It also shows the pilots name along with overriding the OGN comp number with that from the pilot data endpoint.

When embedding Glide and Seek into an external website, settings such as map position, zoom, map type and other settings are only saved for the embedding site. This should always be used when embedding via an iframe or other method.
The site domain.
Example: embed=cotswoldcomps.co.uk
When the aircraftDataUrl
parameter is in use, sometimes it would be useful to still show non-whitelisted aircraft on the map. An example use case is a competition finish line where it would be useful to show other airfield traffic like tugs and club gliders on the map to alert incoming comp gliders.
By default only whitelisted gliders are displayed on the map.
showAllAircraft=true
: Shows all aircraft
showAllAircraft=false
: Only shows whitelisted aircraft
Glide and Seek can be embedded in an iframe by using the below snippet as an example. Any of the above query parameters can be set in the url.
Note: To allow geolocation browser permissions, the following attribute must be added to the iframe: allow="geolocation"
