Sorry for the extremely late reply, I have been traveling for the past 6 weeks.
At the moment it is not possible. You can have multiple maps, but the tracks owners have to match the page authors. Trackserver has no functionality for ‘sharing’ tracks in any way.
I am considering to grant WP admins access to all tracks, which would be logical in some way, and then you would be able to have multiple users’ tracks in a single map or on a single page, if the page author is an admin.
I am also interested in ideas on how a good sharing/permissions system in Trackserver should work.
Best regards,
Martijn.

I have found another solution to what you want, but it requires some work to set up, and it requires installation of an extra plugin called Posts in Page (https://wordpress.org/plugins/posts-in-page/).
This plugin allows you to include multiple posts or pages in a single page using WordPress shortcodes. So if you create a page with a live tracking map for each user that you want to track (make sure that the page’s author is the user in question), you can include all of those into a single page using Posts in Page.
Trackserver will correctly use the author IDs of the contained posts (or pages) to show the right live track.
Note that if your sub-pages are actual pages in WordPress (rather than posts), you have to use [ic_add_posts post_type='page'], otherwise the pages won’t be included.
I hope this helps, it’s the best I can do at this time.
Best regards,
Martijn.
I like the idea: “I am considering to grant WP admins access to all tracks”
Not only for publication, also für managing the tracks of all users.
