If you look after a golf course, how do you explain which bit needs attention without walking everyone round it?
These images of Bridgend Golf & Footgolf show the beginnings of making that easier.
The first photograph gives you a feel for the place. The second might look like a collection of dots, but those dots are coming together to form a digital version of the course — an early step towards a map people can understand and use.
A single drone photograph can show a wide view. Mapping brings lots of overlapping photographs together, helping you see how different parts of a large site fit together while keeping the detail useful.
What could that help you do?
• Point out exactly which area you’re discussing with a contractor.
• Plan maintenance and explain proposed changes.
• Measure distances and areas where the agreed accuracy allows.
• Keep a visual record and compare changes with future mapping.
• Help someone understand the site before they visit.
This is work in progress. The aim is to turn those dots into something useful for the people making decisions about the land.
The same need comes up on farms, in quarries and on building sites.
Know a landowner or site manager saying, “We need a clear picture of the whole place”? You can say, “Speak to Thomas Haywood — he can help you see how it all fits together.”
