Data comes from the virtualEye dashboard https://www.americascup.com/en/advanced-dashboard

View the data at

• https://ac36.herokuapp.com/map - video/map/telemetry integration
• https://ac36.herokuapp.com/stats_app - simple telemetry plot

This repo contains raw data with 20Hz resolution and interpolated 10Hz data in ac36data folder.

For convenience, it can be installed with pip install git+https://github.com/dorox/ac36_data: this will install the ac36data package containing 10Hz data with convenience data access functions:

• ac36data.get_boats("ac2021", "1") returns a tuple of the boats telemetries for the first race of America's cup match.
• ac36data.get_stats("ac2021", "1") returns dictionary of race stats, including leg gaps, teams info, start date, and youtube video metadata for the 1st race of AC match.
• ac36data.get_races("ac2021") returns the list of available races for the event.
• ac36data.events returns the list of available events

Ongoing ideas:

1. Scraping all data packets for all races - ongoing
2. Parsing rudder angle, if this is a useful data
3. Is it possible to get yaw angle from heading and boat track? -YES, but still need to do that.
4. Process course info for map app.

Scraping boat data:

1. Go to website: https://dx6j99ytnx80e.cloudfront.net/
2. Open the chrome debugger (F12)
3. Go to "Sources" tab
4. Place the breakpoint on the line 8310 of the formatted bundle.js file.
5. Refresh the page, and select the race you want
6. Once the debugger stops at breakpoint, type copy(e) in the console below.
7. You have the raw data from boat 1 in the clipboard.
8. To get the data from boat 2 : continue the debugger once, it will stop at the same line again, and repeat step 6

Scraping all data packets:

1. Set a breakpoint in the formatted bundle.js file, on the line 7804 (var a = n[t];)
2. Load the race on the website
3. Type copy(n) in the console: You'll get the .json copied into clipboard.
