Introducing the Ultimate Golf Experience: Get Your Local Course in Your Simulator with Our Drone Mapping Service!
Golf enthusiasts, brace yourselves for a game-changing experience! Imagine playing your local golf course in the comfort of your own home on the popular PGA2K23 golf course simulator. Now, this dream can become a reality, thanks to an innovative drone service that brings the precision of your local course right into your gaming world. Here’s how this pioneering service is transforming the virtual golf experience:
How Does It Work?
Our service uses a state-of-the-art combination of drone LiDAR and photogrammetry technologies to create extremely accurate models of golf courses.
Drone LiDAR Technology
LiDAR, or Light Detection and Ranging, involves using laser light to measure distances to the Earth. When mounted on drones, LiDAR provides high-resolution, three-dimensional information about the shape and surface characteristics of the golf course.
What you are looking at is a colorized LiDAR point cloud. Each one of the trillions of points is accurate within 4 centimeters, meaning we can take accurate measurements of ever crest, brake, and knowl of every square meter of the entire course.
Photogrammetry
Complementing LiDAR, photogrammetry involves taking measurements from photographs. By flying drones over your golf course, we capture detailed images from various angles. These images are then stitched together to create a high-definition, three-dimensional model.
The Process
Scheduling the Mapping: Simply contact us to schedule a drone mapping session for your local golf course. Our team coordinates with the course management to arrange a suitable time for the drone flight.
Drone Flight and Data Capture: On the scheduled day, our drones, equipped with advanced LiDAR sensors and cameras, fly over the course. They meticulously scan and photograph every feature of the course, from tees to fairways, bunkers, greens, and even the subtlest undulations.
Data Processing: The captured data and images are then processed by our team of experts. We use sophisticated software to combine LiDAR data and photogrammetric images, resulting in a highly accurate and detailed 3D model of the golf course.
Integration into the sim: The final step is integrating this model into the game. This integration is seamless, and it brings an unprecedented level of realism to your virtual golf experience.
