The event maps are available for use on a smartphone using the Avenza Maps app. It runs on Android or iOS (iPhones & iPads) and lets you display the event map in detail and see exactly where you are on it.
You don’t need to be within mobile phone range to use the map as it’s stored locally.
This will be invaluable in an emergency or if you are just unsure of your location on the course
