OSM not loading golf features in Chad's tool

[NDFAN]

using0.4.0 version of chads tool I cannot get OSM golf features to load onto the course. The preview will show trees and the topography is there just no greens or tees or anything really, you can clearly see many of greens and bunkers in the topography but that it all. I've published 40 plus lidar courses without a problem. Any help is appreciated

Wrong epsg, I assume.

[NDFAN]

nope I get this error or most often the server is too busy try again later, but it happens persistently at all hours of the day.

Course Description Complete
Done Rendering Course Preview

[jpotas]

If it is done rendering and tells you the preview the course and you don't see your golf course on that. Section of land then it is not looking in the right place for the golf course features. Not having the correct epsg will cause that.

When you get done running the lidar in Chads tool and you have to draw the red square around the plot. Can you see your course features at that time? If not, don't go any farther because you have the wrong epsg.

I have the same issue, tried every epsg code for Esplanade Golf in Naples FLA and continue to get a gray Lidar mapping with nothing in green. If OSM is busy , will this happen even if the correct epsg code is used ?

[TheLidarKing]

Try this one for the Florida course: EPSG:6350

[jpotas]

I am not sure of what version of Chads tool you are using but if it runs all the way through the lidar it will bring up a screen where you have to make a red box to select the specific area you want in detail.. You should see your features at this point. At least that's true with the older versions of the tool.

You can email me your lidar file. And I can run it and check the epsg for you

I do get all the way to the screen that I am supposed to box out, but it is all grey, no green and blue highlighted areas and if I box it and let it continue, the mask file is all grey.
Just sent osm and meta files, my server won't let me send the Lidar files , there are 9 total and range from 53MB to 100MB.

Try this one for the Florida course: EPSG:6350

[Boxman]

It worked , thank you. How did you get this epsg. Here is a screen shot of all the codes I used and 6350 not even on the list.
Do you have a different site that gives codes ?

[TheLidarKing]

This is the one I use: https://epsg.io

It is easier to ask than for me to try to explain everything.

Trying to find EPSG for Stono Ferry GC in Hollywood, SC. Does is matter if its one in meters or feet? I found one in meters that appeared to work on Load LIDR step but then I don't get any course data created so guessing it's not correct EPSG.

On the generate height map if the result is only a black and white image... i.e. no color where the course is can I assume the EPSG was incorrect?

OSM Data for course all appears to have been previously created for course so don't think that's the issue.

[jpotas]

Yes, wrong EPSG. Where did you get your Lidar?

[coblue]

Got it working. Went thru all the EPSGs and the last one I tried worked. Course layout looks good but got some random trees on greens and in bunkers so got some cleanup to do now. Do you have tips for order to cleanup a new course you recommend? I assume first thing I should do is remove the obvious stuff but then is it best to start with infrastructure like adding cart paths, buildings, water? Is there a good logical order?

Oh and can I add a driving range that can be used?

thanks
