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.

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

Protection of sensitive caves on Grottocenter

The UIS has just sent a letter to all the federations and to the delegates of each country to invite them to contact the Wikicaves association to set up a partnership so that we define together the data available to the federations which can be directly integrated into Grottocenter and those for which special protective measures must be taken  

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 .
