GolfCourse: Community-Sourced World Basemap with Custom Symbolization

A vector tile layer provides a customized world basemap optimized to display special areas of interest (AOIs) created by Community Maps contributors. The layer includes landscaping features like grass, trees, and rock, and sports amenities such as tennis courts and field lines. It is built from the same data sources as Esri's World Topographic Map and was last updated on 2026-05-01 by the City of Moreton Bay's Data Hub.

Use Cases

• Creating custom maps based on community-edited landscaping features like grass and trees.
• Analyzing or visualizing the distribution of sports amenities such as tennis courts and baseball fields.
• Integrating a symbolized basemap layer into GIS applications using the provided vector tile format.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from the same authoritative sources used for Esri's World Topographic Map.
• Includes community-contributed edits for special areas of interest, potentially increasing local accuracy.
• Available in multiple geospatial formats including GeoJSON, KML, and ArcGIS REST API.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data may reflect geographic or contributor bias inherent to community-sourced projects.
