Re: Pre-Scouting Ideation

We used tablets, Wii remotes and a laptop last year. We saved the data from each match onto an SD card, then loaded that onto the laptop for import into a database.

MSAccess has some pretty straightforward reporting tools. Tableau looks interesting too, so we may opt to go that route.

It seems like the biggest issue we face is making the data available to the pit. We tried to deliver it on USB, and even on paper - it's just too big a hassle. It looks like we'll have to buy a cellular card for the laptop, so we can produce the reports and email them to the pit crew, who can view them on their phones.

Does anyone have any tried and true data delivery solutions?
