#Awesome golf it maps pro
The pro originally told the developers that the resort would require 500 acres, based on his past experience developing single golf courses, which cover about 100 acres. This part of the state is already somewhat remote they surmise that the upscale clientele they hope to attract are more likely to fly in on commercial flights or private planes than to drive, so they want to ensure that the resort is a short drive from an airport. That's all fine, the development company management agrees, but they argue that accessibility is the real key to success. The pro wants the resort to have the feel of a retreat, so visitors get a sense that they are away from civilization. In his mind's eye he also sees a nearby flowing river, and of course spectacular views of surrounding mountain peaks.
The pro has a vision for the resort's setting: nestled among forest and meadows, but also including grasslands and scrub to give the hikers and equestrians a taste of the Wild West. After numerous meetings and phone calls to reassure the nervous investors, the company is ready to restart the project and move to the next phase-looking for specific locations to build the resort. Several of the investors the company had lined up for the project are expressing concerns about the pro's commitment to the project given his other obligations and his rumored mercurial nature. Since then, the project has been on hold. Read about the development company's initial analysis. The initial study looked at three counties as the best options for the resort. The two more rural counties-Jefferson and Crook-were favored by the pro, while the development company preferred Deschutes County, which includes the region's largest city. An earlier analysis identified three counties in which to locate the resort. The resort will be located in the pro's home state of Oregon. Any resemblance to actual persons or events is purely coincidental.Ī retired golf pro has teamed up with a land development company to build a world-class resort that includes three golf courses, lodging, restaurants, and other amenities. Your criteria and decision-making process may differ.
This is just one approach to using spatial analysis tools for siting a new facility. The feasibility of building a resort on any of the selected sites has not been verified and would require additional research, including site visits. While the data is real, the scenario, analysis, and resulting decisions are hypothetical. The process uses suitability analysis-specifically, weighted raster overlay-to identify the areas that best meet a set of criteria. This example presents an approach to using ArcGIS to find the best locations for a golf resort.
