Using OpenStreetMaps to design a Disc Golf Course

This short guide was published on Medium and YouTube by Mapbox. It doesn't seem useful except as a quick overview.

Frustratingly, the OsmAnd app limits you to 10 downloads (of maps and updates) so you either need to use the F-droid FOSS version, or use a work-around where you can download map indexes to your PC and transfer them manually to your phone.

Disc Golf Course as a Map Feature[edit]

See the

leisure: disc golf course tag in the OSM wiki for creating disc golf courses.

Mobile Mapping[edit]

You really can't make a map until you've collected detailed GPS coordinates. Something like a Garmin eTrex Vista HCx ($40 on eBay), GPSMAP 62s ($150 on eBay), GPSMAP 79sc ($350 at WestMarine) handheld GPS unit, or your mobile phone could work well.

You can actually use OsmAnd to record tracks and edit OSM. See https://learnosm.org/en/mobile-mapping/osmand2/
