R1.02 · Course Intelligence Engine

Athens Marathon. The Authentic

The Athens prototype now has a deterministic, versioned course-analysis layer. R1.02 computes chainage, smoothed elevation, grade windows and terrain segments while keeping the current sampled-data limitation explicit.

R1.02 · Deterministic analysis

Course Intelligence Engine

Coarse Engineering

The engine resamples, smooths and classifies the course profile using versioned parameters. This A01 run is engineering evidence only because the full raw GPX has not yet been locally activated in the isolated environment.

R1.02 engine is valid, but the Athens run is based on the R1.01 25-point sampled elevation profile rather than locally preserved full raw GPX geometry.

Provenance & rights

Open geometry layer

The official GPX metadata attributes the route data to OpenStreetMap contributors. R1.02 keeps geometry provenance separate from derived analysis, and the analysis output preserves the input-profile hash and processor version.
