Letters M (for Mature) and Y (for Young) next to the Track titles indicate the level of conformance with the EvAAL framework, which is essentially complete for Mature Tracks and progressing from year to year for Young Tracks.

The Limit Score (LS) is the minimum score required for a competitor to be awarded a prize.

The Score is the third quartile of point error in metres: the lower, the better.
