We are bringing you select content from the 2018 USEA Annual Meeting & Convention on demand in partnership with RNS Video Media, giving you a chance to relive all the action!

In their presentation at the 2018 USEA Annual Meeting & Convention, Equiratings founders Sam Watson and Diarm Byrne review how data can be used to guide decisions in eventing, both when analyzing performance and analyzing risk. Watson and Byrne provide background on Equiratings, including how it got started, and then discuss what Equirating hopes to do in the future. In 2019, Equiratings will be working on a way to make the data usable and available to everyone. They also examine how data is being used around the world to improve fan engagement, risk assessment, and high performance, using examples from the 2018 FEI World Equestrian Games.
