    Out of interest, how are the courses in WGT modelled? what is involved with analysing the real fairway/green slopes, contours and breaks and how is this transferred into the courses we play now in WGT and how is the accuracy measured?

    Is it expensive, time consuming? are there any barriers or problems that have been faced while gathering the data?

    I'm not after trade secrets, just curious as to whats involved :)

    Thanks for providing the link :)

     

    We just need that chopper to be buzzing around some more courses now.

    Additionally, a lot of courses already have detailed contour information. It's how they rebuild the course after, say, a hurricane.
