yes im hoping to add in the next month or two after i get through north america

definitely better filled through the site itself! any submissions get queued and reviewed overnight. Then elevated to human review if it's hard to verify automatically.

There are a lot of incorrect labels in OSM. I'd love to push my data back upstream to OSM one day once i feel like its very complete and accurate.

yes and new developments/ cities are doing a much better job balancing this in most cases. Golf courses are a great use for flood plains and overflow regions.

you'll get yelled at for entering state parks if you don't pay.

That said if its in the US and incorrect or incomplete you can submit, but anything outside the US i'd wait until i do a first pass on the new regions.

OSM, golfcourseapi.com, booking sites, etc. some help from AI to parse duplicates, bad locations. missing data.

Users can contribute right on the site by submitting corrections. It goes into a review queue and then is reviewed and implemented

Golf courses are often full of exclusively native foliage, often protected areas, and wetland areas. With much more ecodiversity support than neighboring businesses, residential areas, and even parks.

please report it on the site!

Fixed and deployed! Markers only existed on the primary copy of the world, if you ever scrolled passed it would have nuked all the pins. Thanks for the report!

looking into it thanks!

course details are not that great on OSM. typically just some polygons labeled 'golf course' and maybe a number of holes

Good thing water replaces itself!

Only state and zip currently. City names not yet supported (its another 3000ish pages)
