Golf courses are flat [citation needed] and have been messing around with automatically generating map images as SVGs from their models.
So all well and good? Not quite. If we're going to be realistic here, they have to be piped into an outside editor. 1) Rotation will clip off the edges (as seen above!) unless the bounding box is precomputed and piped into the viewBox, but that doesn't account for how much is actually used image data. Other option is to use scaling to compensate, but aegh that's annoying. Fitting and centering is equally frustrating. 2) Hole maps sort of need their own clipped bounds post-rotation so yay more math. 3) Rendering a shadow 100% duplicates the image. That would need to be translated on a global metric, not in user space. So yeah, math is hard but batch operations in image editors are not. Automation is kinda necessary. There are ~5000 of these things after all and each needs a minimum of three images, usually four. (Crazysauce you can just copy an SVG into a message...minus 10000 chars of circles though.) |
