Oct 2008Western Australian Rogaining Asscociation Setting and Vetting Seminar Vetting Why vet? Question: What is the purpose of vetting? Possible Answer: To find the markers left by the setters. Is that sufficient? You should also consider: Is the control in the correct location. Is it fair? Is it safe?

Oct 2008Western Australian Rogaining Asscociation Setting and Vetting Seminar Vetting How to vet Vetters are “The” representatives of the competitors. You must check the event through the eyes of the competitors. Use only the tools available to the competitors. The map & descriptions. Probably an early-stage version. Compass.Eyes.Feet.Watch.Brain.

Oct 2008Western Australian Rogaining Asscociation Setting and Vetting Seminar Vetting What do you need from setters? Draft map Insist on control locations on OCAD map.

Oct 2008Western Australian Rogaining Asscociation Setting and Vetting Seminar

Oct 2008Western Australian Rogaining Asscociation Setting and Vetting Seminar Vetting What do you need from setters? Control Descriptions – use fieldwork sheets, such as in Excel.

Oct 2008Western Australian Rogaining Asscociation Setting and Vetting Seminar Vetting What else do you need from setters? List of landowners, and map of boundaries.

Oct 2008Western Australian Rogaining Asscociation Setting and Vetting Seminar Vetting At Home… Check map and descriptions before you leave home. Descriptions for all controls? Look for obvious goofs where description doesn’t match location on map.

Oct 2008Western Australian Rogaining Asscociation Setting and Vetting Seminar Vetting In The Field As well map and descriptions, also take: Spare marking tape and marker pens You may wish to mark an alternate site Walkie-talkie radios Clipboards, pens (lots), highlighters. Multiple copies of map One to carry which will get scrunched and dirty. One “clean map” to mark alterations onto. Food and drink Tell someone where you are going. Have a fallback-plan. Travel in pairs if possible.

Oct 2008Western Australian Rogaining Asscociation Setting and Vetting Seminar Vetting How to vet “well” Confirming you have the right site. Use the “tools” that the competitors will use. Bearings from strong attack points Pace count Consider their likely approach. Consider parallel features. Even if you quickly find the tape/setting control. Make sure you are on the right feature. Were you lucky to find it, or was it hard to find? Is the site a bingo? Look at the contours… Is the control on the right part of the feature. Is the description correct? Consider “A” and “The”.

Oct 2008Western Australian Rogaining Asscociation Setting and Vetting Seminar Vetting How to vet “well” Confirm that the site is fair. The site clear and obvious on the map. The map is “correct” in area of control. The control is in the clear. The control can be located at night – this is an issue for broad features. Is the control site safe at all times of day. No cliffs, mine-shafts, boulder clusters to scramble up or fall off.

Oct 2008Western Australian Rogaining Asscociation Setting and Vetting Seminar Vetting How to vet “well” Make all corrections to maps and descriptions on field work sheets when at the control site. Not: When you get home When you next meet the setters At pre-event meeting

Oct 2008Western Australian Rogaining Asscociation Setting and Vetting Seminar Vetting Vetters are involved with everything With the map: Look for new features - dams, roads not on map – especially near controls. Checking point values allocated. Checking control description sheet “Grading” roads on map - major, minor, removable. Water drop locations. Patrolled roads route. At the event site: Setting up camp site and tents Firewood Patrol roads Newsletter submissions – Teaser and Review

Oct 2008Western Australian Rogaining Asscociation Setting and Vetting Seminar Vetting Dealing with setters Vetters have equal responsibility and authority as the setters. Although the setters have probably found the area and done the landowner work, the vetters’ role is more important to the success of the event. If you report a problem – the setters must attend to this problem. If a control site is too contentious – move it or get rid of it. With prior agreement of setters, vetters may place their own tapes and have the setters “vet” new site. Some setting and vetting teams split the roles 50/50.
