# 7.1 Scoring

The competition will be evaluated based on the four main categories: Safety, Efficiency, Execution and Autonomy Transparency. Each category will be given an equal weighting in determining the final score. However, within each category, certain criteria may be given more weight based on their level of difficulty and importance to the overall design of the ship. Furthermore the size of the vessel will be taken into account when evaluating the performances.

Additionally, teams may also receive bonus points for particularly impressive or unique innovations in their design.

Overall, the scoring system is designed to reward teams for a well-rounded and high-quality design, as well as for displaying a strong understanding of the competition requirements and goals.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://njord.gitbook.io/physical-competition-2023/7-evaluation/7.1-scoring.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
