What is a Map Score?

A map score is a quantitative measure used to evaluate the speed at which a certain distance is covered. It is often used in orienteering and navigation exercises to assess performance. The score is calculated by dividing the distance covered by the time taken to cover that distance, resulting in a speed value typically expressed in meters per second.

Example Calculations

Example 1:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{Map Score} = \frac{5000}{1000} = 5 \text{ meters/second} \]

Example 2:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{Map Score} = \frac{3000}{600} = 5 \text{ meters/second} \]
