摘要

Title: Method for estimating an instant of passage of a competitor at a fixed benchmark of a race site and associated computer product program The invention relates to a method for estimating an instant of passage (TP) d 'a competitor at a fixed landmark (21) of a race venue, the competitor being equipped with a geolocation sensor. The method comprises the following steps: - acquisition by a centralized server of a reference signal sent by the sensor, the reference signal comprising at least one reference position (P1) of the competitor at a reference instant (T1); - determination by the centralized server of a reference speed (V1) of the competitor at the reference instant (T1); and - estimation of the passing instant (TP) by extrapolation of the reference instant (T1) at least as a function of the reference position (P1), of the known position (PR) of the fixed frame (21) and of the reference speed (V1).
