Before
The elevated perspective of images taken by a camera attached to a drone provides a different perspective from on-the-ground shots. In the example below, before and after images taken from the air provide a complete picture of the impact of bunker reduction around the eleventh green at St Charles CC, including the removal of a bunker behind the green. Mike Benkusky, ASGCA, explains: “From the air you get a much better scale of the bunkers. This helps to show that we can minimize sand area to improve playability and maintenance, yet still keep the strategy of the golf hole.”

With some stop-frame work and annotation, video footage of entire holes can be manipulated to show proposed changes. See videos of St Charles CC at:
