freemapper-courseplan

What it does

• Controls, courses and special objects in the editor on the map: start, finish, controls with code and description, bends, marked routes and out-of-bounds areas.
• Checks by the German competition rules of 2026, such as control distances, sharp angles and enough different first controls, each with its source and with reasoned exceptions (check).
• Purple Pen both ways: import, export and sync, so both programs can be used side by side.
• IOF XML 3.0 for the results software.
• Score courses with point values, time limit and suggested control sites.

The courses are printed with freemapper-print.

Install

Download the archive for your system below and unpack it. As with freemapper, macOS needs xattr -d com.apple.quarantine freemapper-courseplan, and Windows asks on the first start (More info → Run anyway). freemapper-courseplan --version shows that it worked; freemapper-courseplan update fetches the newest version later.

The first course

freemapper-courseplan init hall.omap --title "Training"
freemapper-courseplan edit hall.courseplan.toml

edit opens the editor in the browser. The instructions for AI assistants are in AGENTS.md.
