| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the role of computers in golf course design, suggesting that "the power of...hardware and software has made the computer an invaluable tool in the golf course design office." Also discusses potential benefits to using computers in golf course design, stating that "one of the great benefits of computerised [computerized] design is the ability to produce plots (plans) to any scale required." States that "the...speed at which both hardware and software are being developed results in two major benefits to the user: reduced costs and reduced computing times. The reduced costs are continually placing more sophisticated equipment and programs at [architects'] fingertips and enable [them] to process the technical aspects of [their] designs more efficiently and quickly." |
