Community Reactions
People are fascinated by the map, not just for visiting golf courses, but also to learn about the communities that have them.
This is fascinating not because I’m interested in visiting any of these. But to see the communities in Alaska with courses, or to look at the most concentrated places and wonder what so many people in Florida get out of having a fairway and one hole right in their backyard.
Mapping Details and Suggestions
Some users suggested adding polygon areas to show the size of each golf course.
Polygon areas would be cool to see how big they are. I made this few years ago for Singapore https://observablehq.com/@cheeaun/golf-courses-in-singapore
Others proposed using the map to draw up areas with polygons and provide more details about each golf course.
Nice job! When I zoom in on Google earth you can easily see if it’s actually a golf course or not, would been interesting to use this to draw up the areas with polygons and some more details. Then you could start providing a lot more details about each one automatically.
