Re: New Global Scouting System

I agree, verifying data and getting people to use the system are both things which need to be addressed. What if we had teams register their email / input device to a whitelist? That way only verified accounts can submit data. Also, if you get a high volume of data you can identify outliers, which usually is incorrect data. Would setting a minimum amount of data input for each result make the scouting accurate? Are these the right kind of safeguards you would need to implement to get an accurate collection of data?
