Why you need it
Disseminate your digital data.
Staying in contact with the many golf courses is a vital part of your job to help disseminate various types of information and keep everyone informed. Since almost 80% of all information has a spatial component there is something called a GIS (Geographic Information System) to help deal with it.
This is software for both desktop, web or mobile that helps manage, disseminate, visualize, analyse spatial information. What do you say to a graphical, visual system that speaks to everyone and that everyone understands...a MAP of course. Maps have existed for many years and the first possibly up to 8,000 years.[1]
