New website with tournament locator

[juliana]

Shawn and I are planning to update the old site "Juliana's Disc Golf Stuff". The URL will be dgonline.info. Currently the old info is sitting there, but it will be modified soon (hopefully)

The reason for this post is to tell you that we have created a new page that puts the US tournaments (Majors, NT's and A tiers) on a Google map. Check out http://www.dgonline.info/maps/

I originally planned to do the B, C and D tiers as well, but that started to get a little too tedious. Anyway, the intent of the map is to give you a visual idea of what's happening where.

That is one great map Juliana. Good luck this year. I like your chances for # 6

[the_kid]

Great map but I found one problem. Am world doubles is in Wimberly, Tx not San Saba.

[juliana]

Whoops, thanks for letting me know. I've fixed it.

Juliana

[the_kid]

No problem.

Are these the tournies you guys plan on playing? will you be making it tothe TWC ?

if they make every A Tier and major, that would impressive. I mean, being at the Masters Cup in cali and the Crosstown in NC would be amazing.

Bonus amazement points if they cash at both tournies.

(ask a dumb questions, get smart #$*&$! answers )

[jdebois]

Maybe one of them is playing the Masters and the other is playing the Crosstown. Probably not, but it's possible.

Also, I think the date of the Brandywine Windjammer has changed from Oct 21/22 to Oct 28/29.

[juliana]

I've included all US Majors, NT's and A tiers not just those I will or want to attend.

As far as the TX Women's Championships, I actually do expect to make it to that event this year.

I've changed the date for Brandywine, thanks for pointing that out.

I've created another set of Google Maps for 2007 tournaments. http://dgonline.info/maps/index.html

Currently the maps include pages for Majors, NTs, A tiers, Southern National events, and Women's only events. Note: if you click on one of the markers on a map, you will find a popup window with tournament information a link to the tournament page. I may start working on B tiers or more likely I will pick a few states and do all events for those states. I'm sure there are typo's and broken links in places. If you run across any, let me know and I will correct them.

Pretty fricken sweet!

[davidsauls]

Great work!

One proofreading note---you have the Hall-of-Fame Classic in Augusta, GA listed as "August 20-22". It should read "April 20-22".

[RonSTL]

That is sweet

The Green pin marked for the Sugarbush NT looks like it's where the A-tier at Warwick will be located instead of Vermont where it will be played. The map looks sharp!

[gotcha]

Very cool site, Juliana! I especially like the fact that each locater icon will link you to that respective club's web site. What a pleasure it is to find something useful on this DISCussion board!

p.s. I did notice the Pittsburgh Flying Disc Open dates were incorrect. Please change dates to: Sat-Sun, Jul 14-15, 2007

[juliana]

Thanks for pointing out the mistakes. I've corrected all that you have mentioned. Please let me know if you find any others.

Juliana

I think the Sugarbush location is about halfway between the last h in Peterborough and the tip of the brown line for Vermont. The town is Warren, VT if you need GPS reference. Your green pinpoint looks like it's on the US-Canada border?

[juliana]

OK, I've got Warren, VT with a latitude of 44.11806 and a longitude of -72.8578. Should be in the right spot now.

I've been doing the NT/Majors/A tier map for the PDGA Tour guide. That's why I was curious.

[marshief]

The mark over Pueblo, CO should be Colorado State Championships, Oct 13-14. It currently shows up as the DGTV Fall Open in WI, and looks like there isn't a mark for that one.

Thanks for all of this work!

[juliana]

I've corrected the CO State Championships and included the mark for the event in Cable, WI. Note: you may have to clear your cache to be able to see the changes.

Related to this schedule, I believe U.S. players are now required to get passports this year if they play the Toronto NT or they may not get home.

[Luke Butch]

map looks sweet. great job

[lowe]

Ultra cool map!! Thanks for making it. Note, though, that the dates of the USDGC need to be changed from Oct 11-14 to Oct 3-6.

[juliana]

Thanks for pointing out the USDGC date. I've made the change.

Juliana

[juliana]

I'm working on the 2008 version of the google mashup of tournament locations. You can look at http://dgonline.info/maps/index.html to see Majors, NT's and A tiers. I'll try to add B tiers and possibly women's events and Southern National events in the future.

[Ken4]

The marker for worlds says its in Milwaukee WI. Should read Kalamazoo MI.

[seewhere]

As far as the TX Women's Championships, I actually do expect to make it to that event this year.

that would be cool.

MTL shut it..


says texas states is in houston it is really in Missouri City, TX.

Awesome!!! FYI - Golden State Classic at La Mirada, CA - the NT marker is set to El Dorado (Long Beach, CA).

[juliana]

Kalamazoo, Missouri City, and the location for Golden State have been corrected. Thanks. Let me know if you find any more mistakes.
