![]() ![]() I save this as a txt file and I end up with a text file with latitude, longitude, and altitude data. ![]() I save that as a kmz file and then going to to get elevation data for this. So my idea is to create a DEM from Google Earth by laying down points on a path all around the golf course. Now, there are some courses that I would like to create where there is no readily available LiDAR or DEM data. Using GlobalMapper with the LiDAR module, I have been able to take this data, classify all of the points to ground (the data is all unclassified), and then export to LAS file and have been able to successfully import that with my tool to come up with a fairly good representation of the golf course. ![]() In Japan where I am, for example, I can download 5M DEM data for most of the country (although there are a lot of spots where the land has not been mapped out). There are a lot of sources for downloading LiDAR data across the US or other countries, however, there are also a lot of places where data is not available. I am using software that can take LiDAR data, overlay it onto an OpenStreetMaps (with features of a golf course mapped out onto it) and then create a highly accurate simulation of a golf course. I am new to GlobalMapper and a novice in this whole field so please forgive my ignorance. ![]()
