What Makes The Lidar King’s Golf Course Design Service Unique

LiDAR Technology Creates Exact Real-World Undulations and Elevations

At the heart of The Lidar King’s superior golf course design service is the cutting-edge LiDAR technology implementation. Unlike traditional design methods, LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) technology captures precise measurements of the actual terrain, ensuring that every subtle contour of the real-world course is faithfully reproduced in your simulator. This technology guarantees that when you play on one of our designed courses, you’ll experience the exact same undulations and elevations as you would standing on the actual fairway. The result is a simulator experience that plays true to the authentic course design, providing unmatched realism for practice sessions and competitive play.

Over 500 Courses Designed Worldwide in the Last Five Years

The Lidar King’s expertise is backed by an impressive portfolio of accomplishments. In just the past five years, we have successfully designed and delivered more than 500 golf courses for clients around the globe. This extensive experience has allowed us to refine our processes and develop unparalleled expertise in virtual course creation. Each course in our extensive catalog represents our commitment to accuracy and quality, making The Lidar King one of the most prolific and trusted names in golf simulator course design.

Versatility is another hallmark of The Lidar King’s service offering. Understanding that golfers use various simulation platforms, we’ve ensured our course designs are compatible with all major golf simulator software. Whether you prefer GSPro for its realistic physics, The Golf Club 2019 for its established community, or any of the 2k series games (2k21, 2k23, and the upcoming 2k25), our meticulously crafted courses work seamlessly across platforms. This cross-compatibility means you can enjoy your favorite courses regardless of which simulator system you’ve invested in, maximizing the value and enjoyment of your golf simulation setup.

Proven Track Record with Real Customer Success Stories

Cherry Valley Club Restoration with Incredible Attention to Detail

The Lidar King’s commitment to precision is exemplified in the Cherry Valley Club restoration project. A delighted client praised not only the superb workmanship but also the patience demonstrated throughout the process. Following Superstorm Sandy’s devastation, countless trees were lost from the original course. The Lidar King meticulously added back these trees, recreating the course exactly as the client remembered from their youth. The attention to detail was remarkable, capturing specific club features that made Cherry Valley unique. The team even incorporated authentic environmental elements like a passenger jet flying overhead, creating an immersive experience that perfectly matched the client’s memories.

Lakewood Shores Resort Recreation Bringing Back Childhood Memories

Another testament to The Lidar King’s exceptional service comes from a client who had their formative golfing experience at Lakewood Shores Resort. This sentimental recreation project delivered precisely what the client hoped for – a virtual version of the course that played exactly as they remembered. The client was overjoyed to report that every aspect of the simulation matched their childhood memories, allowing them to revisit the course where they first learned to play golf. This success story demonstrates how The Lidar King’s work goes beyond mere technical accuracy to deliver emotional connections through faithful recreation.

International Projects Like Real Club Golf Cerdanya in Remote Locations

The Lidar King’s expertise extends globally, as evidenced by their successful replication of Real Club Golf Cerdanya. This challenging project involved recreating a course situated in an extremely remote mountainous region between Spain and France. Despite the geographical challenges, The Lidar King produced impressive beta versions that exceeded the client’s expectations. This international success story showcases the team’s ability to overcome complex terrain mapping and deliver high-quality course recreations regardless of location.

Sentimental Course Recreations for Family Memories and Closed Courses

Some of The Lidar King’s most meaningful work involves recreating courses with deep personal significance. One touching example is the recreation of Lincoln Greens Golf Course, where a client had spent countless happy hours golfing with their late father. The virtual recreation allowed the client to revisit those cherished memories in remarkable detail. The Lidar King also specializes in preserving courses that have recently closed, ensuring that beloved golfing destinations aren’t lost forever. These sentimental projects demonstrate how The Lidar King’s services extend beyond simple simulation to preserve meaningful family connections and golfing heritage.

Comprehensive Course Design Process and Quality Assurance

Free No-Obligation Search to Verify LiDAR Availability

Before committing to any project, The Lidar King offers a completely free, no-obligation search service to determine whether your desired golf course has quality LiDAR data available. This crucial first step ensures that we can create an accurate representation of your course before any work begins, saving you time and potential disappointment. We thoroughly analyze available data sources to confirm that your course is viable for recreation in GSPro or TGC 2019.

Unlimited Hours Spent Ensuring Customer Satisfaction

What truly sets The Lidar King apart is our unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction. Unlike services that limit design hours, we dedicate unlimited time to perfecting your course. This means we’ll work tirelessly on every bunker, green, and fairway until you’re completely satisfied with the result. Our dedication to quality means no rushed deadlines or compromises on the details that make your favorite course special.

Beta Testing and Revision Process for Perfect Accuracy

Our meticulous design process includes a comprehensive beta testing phase. Once we’ve completed the initial design, you’ll receive a beta version to play and evaluate. This hands-on testing allows you to provide specific feedback about any elements that need adjustment. We then incorporate your suggested tweaks and changes, refining the course until it achieves perfect accuracy. This collaborative revision process ensures the final product meets or exceeds your expectations.

Detailed Features Including Clubhouses, Trees, and Course Landmarks

The Lidar King’s course designs go beyond basic layouts to include the detailed features that give each golf course its unique character. Our comprehensive designs include accurately placed clubhouses, specific tree types that match the actual course, and distinctive hedge lines. We meticulously recreate course landmarks such as starter’s booths, halfway huts, and lightning shelters. Even secondary amenities like tennis pavilions, patios, and BBQ stations are included to provide the most authentic simulation experience possible. These detailed elements transform a simple course layout into a truly immersive virtual golfing environment.

Understanding LiDAR Data Limitations and Solutions

While The Lidar King provides exceptional golf course simulation builds, it’s important to understand certain limitations with LiDAR data and how we address them to deliver the most accurate course possible.

How satellite imagery age affects course accuracy

When building your golf course, we utilize Bing data as our primary source of information. Similar to Google Maps, this satellite imagery can sometimes be outdated. For example, you might notice the imagery shows your car parked at home from five years ago, indicating the data isn’t current. This age difference can impact the accuracy of course details, as golf courses evolve over time with maintenance and redesigns.

The age of satellite imagery directly affects how closely our initial build matches the current state of the course. Older imagery might not reflect recent landscaping changes, renovations, or even significant redesigns that have occurred in the intervening years.

Recent course changes not captured in standard data

Standard data packages may fail to capture numerous recent modifications to golf courses, including:

• Newly constructed or redesigned bunkers

• Relocated or renovated tee boxes

• Tree removal or new plantings

• Added bridges or water features

• Path modifications

• Green renovations or reshaping

These changes can significantly impact gameplay and the visual accuracy of your simulator experience. When these elements aren’t reflected in the standard satellite data, your simulated course might differ noticeably from the real-world course you’re familiar with.

RCR package for courses with significant updates or modifications

For courses that have undergone substantial changes not reflected in the standard Bing data, we offer our specialized RCR (Real Course Recreation) package. This premium solution ensures your simulated course plays exactly like the real course does today.

The RCR package involves a collaborative process where we work directly with you to incorporate the latest changes to the course. This might include:

• Sharing recent photographs of modified areas

• Providing updated course maps or scorecards

• Detailing specific changes to holes or features

• Confirming current yardages and layouts

By combining our technical expertise with your current knowledge of the course, we can overcome the limitations of outdated satellite imagery to create a truly accurate representation of the course as it exists today.

Simple Steps to Get Your Dream Course Built

A. Email Verification Process for Course Feasibility

Before embarking on your golf course design journey with The Lidar King, the first crucial step involves our email verification process. Simply email us with the name and exact address of the golf course you’d like to have built. This initial contact allows us to verify the feasibility of creating your desired course using available LiDAR data. This verification step is essential as it helps determine whether we can deliver the high-quality simulation course you envision.

B. Mandatory Pre-Purchase Course Availability Check

With this verification process in mind, we’ve implemented a mandatory pre-purchase availability check for all course requests. This critical step prevents disappointment by ensuring you don’t purchase a service for a course that cannot be created due to LiDAR data limitations. We prioritize transparency in our business model, preferring to turn down a project rather than deliver results that don’t meet our standards of excellence.

C. Collaborative Approach Throughout the Design Process

Once your course feasibility is confirmed, we embrace a truly collaborative design process. As a client, you’ll remain involved throughout each stage of development, ensuring your vision is fully realized in the final product. This ongoing collaboration allows us to address any needed changes promptly and incorporate your feedback. The result is a custom-designed golf simulator course that accurately reflects both the actual course layout and your specific preferences.

D. Professional Responsiveness and Customer Support Guarantee

Throughout your entire journey with The Lidar King, you can expect unmatched professionalism, exceptional responsiveness, and quick correspondence. Our customers consistently praise our commitment to communication and support, ensuring a smooth and supportive experience from initial inquiry through final delivery.
