Smart Golf Course GIS Platform

A complete open-source geospatial workflow for golf course asset management. A UAS LiDAR and imagery survey and a street-level 360° capture become terrain and surface models, a condition-attributed asset inventory, and a web platform where every layer can be explored in 2D, in 3D and from ground level.

Why it matters

Superintendents see the condition of each green, bunker and drainage structure in context. Drainage and grading decisions use real terrain, and canopy height flags tree encroachment, all from a browser without proprietary software.

Coordinate systems: NAD83(2011) Florida East (ftUS) for survey and DTM, WGS 84 / UTM 17N for the LiDAR point cloud, Web Mercator for display. Vertical datum: NAVD88 (ft).
