GateMate™ is a portable Alpine ski race gate placement and tracking
system which incorporates Hemisphere GPS’ Crescent® or Eclipse™
technology and custom designed software in a rugged Windows Mobile®
package. With GateMate, course workers can map the gates to less than 1
meter of their original location without the use of landmarks or measuring
tapes.  GateMate allows course  workers to significantly reduce the time it
takes to map and place gates on a course. Users can pinpoint, position and
number a gate at the same time, making removal and replacement efficient
and accurate. GateMate data is directly compatible with the freely available
Google Earth™ viewer, enabling a virtual run through the course between
surveyed gates. The Google Earth map allows users to see the gates and run
up close and personal.
