uPATO App

uPATO (Ultimate Performance Analysis Tool) is a new application for network analysis oriented to team sports but it can be used with other kinds of networks.

It allows codifying, importing, visualizing, computing measures and exporting data from the observed network.

The general idea of the uPATO tool is to innovate in the way how match analysis is performed and used in team sports, for example in football. The uPATO tool allows the introduction of data based on adjacency matrices and integrates the several metrics used for team sports analysis. Usually, each author presents a tool with their metrics but the uPATO tool integrates all metrics available for graphs and digraphs, weighted or not.

uPATO also provides tools for analyzing GPS data, allowing the study of performance in team sports. The foreseen supported equipment includes FieldWiz and TraXports systems. Besides, it has a generic template that accepts geolocation data (e.g., time, xPos, yPos, lat, long), at least the first three columns are required.

This app is funded by FCT/MEC through national funds and when applicable co-funded by FEDER – PT2020 partnership agreement under the project UID/EEA/50008/2013.
