Saving & Exporting

Saving and loading project data

Your analysis is stored in the browser only while the tab is open. To persist your work, save it to a JSON file and reload it later.

Save Data

Click Save Data in the Project Files section of the sidebar. A file called course_planning_data.json is downloaded. This file contains:

• Map scale, DPI, and drawing scale settings.
• All control positions.
• All variant paths, labels, colours, and chosen flags.
• Leg notes.
• Event name.
• All independent legs and their variants (if any).

Load Data

Click Load Data and select a previously saved .json file. All controls, variants, and settings are restored. You will still need to Load Map separately, as the map image is not embedded in the JSON file.

Note: Load your map image first, then load the data file so that controls and variants render in the correct positions.

HTML export

The Export HTML button (available in both Course and Independent Legs mode via the export buttons in the sidebar) generates a self-contained HTML file that can be opened in any browser without the app being running.

The exported page includes:

• The map image embedded as a data URL.
• Each leg rendered individually with its route variants overlaid.
• Distance measurements for every variant.
• The chosen variant highlighted.
• Leg notes, if any were added.
• The event name as the page title.

Share this file directly with teammates or coaches — no server required.

PDF export

The Export PDF button generates a multi-page printable PDF. Each leg is rendered on its own page (or tile) with the route variants and distances shown. The PDF is suitable for printing on A4 or letter-size paper.

PDF rendering happens client-side using html2canvas and jsPDF, so it may take a few seconds for larger courses.

Event name

The event name entered in the Event field at the top of the sidebar appears as the title in both HTML and PDF exports. Setting a descriptive name (e.g. WOC 2024 Sprint Q Analysis) makes shared files easier to identify.
