FOR GOLF CLUBS

Put your course in your guests' hands.

Every hole as a drawing, with distances to the edge of the green and over bunkers and water. On the phone or as a booklet to print at home, for every guest teeing off with you for the first time.

    SELF SERVICE

    The code can be up
    this afternoon.

    Your course is already here, otherwise you would not have found this page. And if a hole is missing: it is drawn in OpenStreetMap in an hour, and the way there is on every course page.

    STILL REACHABLE

    If you have a question, or you have rebuilt a hole: write to us, or come to the Discord. That is where you reach us, and where what gets built next is talked about.

    COMMON QUESTIONS

    Where do the figures come from?

    From OpenStreetMap, drawn by volunteers. Measured along the line of play, roughly from the back tee. This is not your official scorecard, and every printout says so.

    What does it cost us?

    Nothing. You need no account, neither do your guests, and nobody leaves payment details. Whoever prints a booklet pays for their own paper.

    We have rebuilt a hole. What now?

    You know your course better than any map. A rebuilt hole is changed in OpenStreetMap in a few minutes and is on your course page the next day. Reporting it needs no account, straight from the hole.

    Do we have to sign anything?

    No. You put the code up and you take it down again whenever you want, and you do not even have to tell us. There is nothing to sign and nothing to cancel.

    What do our guests see when they scan the code?

    Your course page: the course map, three holes drawn with every distance, plus par, length and stroke index. One click further the whole facility sits in the app, and from there your guest prints their booklet without signing in.

    Can we put our logo on our course page?

    Yes, and you do not have to ask us. Four steps, three of them at Wikimedia:

    1. Upload your logo to Wikimedia Commons, as your own work and under a free licence. Commons needs one, and only the owner of the logo can give it: you.
    2. Look up your club on wikidata.org. If it is not there yet, create an item. You get a number of the form Q….
    3. On that item, set the logo field (P154) to the file from step 1.
    4. In OpenStreetMap, add wikidata=Q… with the number from step 2 to the leisure=golf_course area. That is the whole facility, not one of the courses on it. That is how we know which item belongs to you.

    We do the rest: we fetch the file and put it on your course page, on the cover of the booklet and in the app, with the licence and the author next to it. We look at every logo first, because that field is open for anyone to edit. So it does not show up the same day.

    Too much hassle? Send the logo to clubs@openyardage.com and tell us we may use it. Then we take it from there.

    You want your official lengths per tee, CR and slope? Write to clubs@openyardage.com, we build that by hand with the first clubs.
