Invitation for a Speleo competition

The Bulgarian Federation of Speleology would like to invite you to an International Caving Competition of speleo-disciplines.

Българска Федерация по Спелеология
The competition has been organized regularly for a number of years for Bulgarian cavers, but this year we decided to open it to other countries as well.
It will take place on 29 April and 30 April 2017 in Karlukovo village, Bulgaria.
There will be 3 separate competitions:
  • A technical competition for a 2 person team that includes: rigging and derigging of a pit, passing through a pre-rigged vertical rope system, knots knowledge, self-rescue.
  • Cave survey and preparation of a complete map of a small cave by a 2 person team
  • Speed climbing
For the best performers in each competition there will be awards, provided by local equipment shops.
You can find more information here.

Easily download all data from Grottocenter

  Vincent has just set up a service that makes it easy to download all Grottocenter data.   This takes the form of a compressed file which contains a json file per type of data (inputs, cavities, organizations, massifs, documents). The update is carried out once a month.   This service is accessible to members of the Wikicaves association and partner organizations. If you are interested in this service, do not hesitate to contact us .  

Grottocenter datas on VMap

 Laurent Blum has set up an application to manage caves After some exchanges with the Wikicaves association, he set up a solution to visualize the data from Grottocenter. We wanted the data to remain freely accessible, for this he created a generic user that you can use  URL: https://vmapspeleo.fr/vmap/ Identifier: grottocenter Password: grottocenter

Grottocenter faster

Vincent, who joined the development team a few weeks ago, has just modified the code of the two applications (Back-end which provides the data and Front-end which is the one you use) in order to optimize the data which are exchanged. The result is faster page display because less information is downloaded.       I invite you to take the opportunity to contribute .
