Thanks a bunch! We're actually in the process of rewriting the scouting input side to provide better data (we discovered that we simply were trying to track too many things; the game goes really quickly), so we'll upload a new video when we feel that's solid.
The answer to the raw data question is two-fold. The most raw form of data is entirely useless (we store each event that happens on the field as a transaction - you'd have a huge list of mostly meaningless rows) to extract. The data we create by analyzing these entries is designed to be read out through a dashboard (currently still in development) by a drive team or other strategy people, and isn't currently exportable to any other formats (CSV, XLS, what-have-you). We try to provide more than enough data points and visualizations to help eliminate the need for processing by external tools. That said, we won't rule out an export function in the future if we feel it's justifiable.
Thanks for the input!
