But the two that have me scratching my head are 18 and 5 FPO where the elevation tee to basket is reversed. @discgolfnetwork.bsky.social @perksofdiscgolf.bsky.social23 Aug 2025 18:02 +0000at://did:plc:tohptrv252ehfwnmpiru7aq4/app.bsky.feed.post/3lx3kk4sq6s2dhttps://bsky.app/profile/coursemaps.bsky.social/post/3lx3365qkt226Glad to see elevation profiles in the DGPT caddie books but they are over simplified to the point of making what is hard to depict on video even more confusing... 1) The slope does not flatten out at the basket and gets steeper right behind. 4) The terrain climbs up after crossing the second pond.23 Aug 2025 13:27 +0000at://did:plc:tohptrv252ehfwnmpiru7aq4/app.bsky.feed.post/3lx3365qkt226https://bsky.app/profile/coursemaps.bsky.social/post/3ln4hyodna22hNot sure how DGPT came up with 939 feet Hole 4 Bad Rock Creek - 855 feet Three measurements... #discgolf18 Apr 2025 20:37 +0000at://did:plc:tohptrv252ehfwnmpiru7aq4/app.bsky.feed.post/3ln4hyodna22hhttps://bsky.app/profile/coursemaps.bsky.social/post/3lmwm7cgxi22gI make lots of maps remotely and use multiple sources to collect data.

The tee signs however don't include any elevation information which can easily be displayed along with other information when using geo-referenced imagery. #discgolf12 Apr 2025 16:16 +0000at://did:plc:tohptrv252ehfwnmpiru7aq4/app.bsky.feed.post/3lmmwmgbpzc2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/coursemaps.bsky.social/post/3llcgen46ds2jHole 18, Sprinkle Valley from the MVP Open at Austin. 1) A full map drawn to scale with elevation profile and distances. 2) Elevation profile of the approach to the green. 3) Terrain map around 18's green showing the old tanks (ponds) that can flood in heavy rain.26 Mar 2025 18:34 +0000at://did:plc:tohptrv252ehfwnmpiru7aq4/app.bsky.feed.post/3llcgen46ds2jhttps://bsky.app/profile/coursemaps.bsky.social/post/3lg7arqxkvc2cI didn't catch this video podcast when it aired last summer but I'm glad I ran across it...ringing endorsement indeed 😎 #discgolf #cartography #maps20 Jan 2025 21:10 +0000at://did:plc:tohptrv252ehfwnmpiru7aq4/app.bsky.feed.post/3lg7arqxkvc2chttps://bsky.app/profile/coursemaps.bsky.social/post/3lf4st5dx3k2qAlways rewarding to chat with a team of disc golfers (hosts and producer) that really 'get' what you are trying to accomplish.😎 [contains quote post or other embedded content]07 Jan 2025 04:29 +0000at://did:plc:tohptrv252ehfwnmpiru7aq4/app.bsky.feed.post/3lf4st5dx3k2qhttps://bsky.app/profile/coursemaps.bsky.social/post/3lcyklycess2cElevation tells a story and complicates an already tough fairway. The second shot has to navigate the OB and woods and your rangefinder won't help with the target around the corner and over the hill. @randisc.com @bagelpowered.bsky.social @greensplatter.bsky.social @hangingloosepod.bsky.social11 Dec 2024 01:01 +0000at://did:plc:tohptrv252ehfwnmpiru7aq4/app.bsky.feed.post/3lcyklycess2chttps://bsky.app/profile/coursemaps.bsky.social/post/3lcvtsad7ns2kI was sent this disc golf course mockup by a designer wanting a cost estimate for signage. My first step is to look at the elevation of the property. KML data imports easily into GIS software making a mashup like this rather simple. customcoursemaps.com09 Dec 2024 23:08 +0000at://did:plc:tohptrv252ehfwnmpiru7aq4/app.bsky.feed.post/3lcvtsad7ns2khttps://bsky.app/profile/coursemaps.bsky.social/post/3lcuwvy3u3k2bElevation base layers make a huge difference for disc golf maps.

Not sure if this omission is intentional since the announcers always mention how the camera doesn't really show the steepness of the fairway. Maybe they don't know how to include it since it requires some processing.

Pre existing lidar and GIS data play a big role in remotely creating disc golf maps. While I have never visited this course, I can still pull together enough data to to create an accurate map that highlights terrain.19 Nov 2024 05:16 +0000at://did:plc:tohptrv252ehfwnmpiru7aq4/app.bsky.feed.post/3lbbollfuks2xhttps://bsky.app/profile/coursemaps.bsky.social/post/3lazvw5qktk2wBlueSky is a breath of fresh air and I need to fill that media folder! Elevation data helps describe a disc golf fairway. It also keeps you honest when delineating shorelines. This comparison illustrates that point.
