Disc golf on OpenStreetMap
The open disc golf map: every course on Planet DiscGolf comes from OpenStreetMap — the free, community-maintained map of the world.
An open disc golf map, updated hourly
Planet DiscGolf renders OpenStreetMap (OSM) disc golf data directly: the interactive map, the disc golf route planner and the country and region pages are all generated from the same open dataset. No proprietary database, no login wall — when someone improves a course in OSM, it shows up here within the hour.
Right now that is 2684 disc golf courses across 37 countries — refreshed from OpenStreetMap every hour.
How disc golf is tagged in OSM
The de-facto standard (see the OSM wiki: Disc golf):
| Course | a node tagged leisure=disc_golf_course
+ name=*, placed at the info sign or first tee |
|---|---|
| Hole | a way from tee to basket tagged
disc_golf=hole + ref=* (hole number) + par=* |
| Tee | node tagged disc_golf=tee, optionally surface=* |
| Basket | node tagged disc_golf=basket |
Useful extras on the course node: disc_golf:course=18_hole,
fee=*, website=*, opening_hours=*, operator=*.
Common mistakes to avoid: mapping the course as an area instead of a node, using
disc_golf=pin instead of disc_golf=basket, or reusing
golf=* tags.
Add or fix a course in two minutes
- Open the course location in the OSM editor (openstreetmap.org/edit) — free account, edits in the browser.
- Add a point, tag it
leisure=disc_golf_courseand give it a name — that alone puts it on every OSM-based disc golf map. - Know more? Add hole count, fee and website. Our step-by-step contribute guide walks through it.
Open the OSM review mode How to contribute
The review mode shows raw OSM disc golf data — including mistagged courses — so mappers can spot and fix data-quality problems directly.
