Case Study: Golf Australia achieves seamless fan navigation and reduced paper waste with Mappedin's Responsive Web App

Golf Australia used a digital interactive golf course map to help crowds navigate the ISPS HANDA Australian Open event

Golf Australia, the national governing body for golf, needed a digital wayfinding solution to help attendees navigate the ISPS HANDA Australian Open while reducing paper map printing and improving mobile access to event information. To meet this need, Golf Australia partnered with Mappedin and adopted Mappedin’s Responsive Web App—a digital interactive golf course map embedded on their website.

Mappedin implemented the Responsive Web App with blue-dot wayfinding and placed QR codes at event entrances so spectators could quickly open the map on mobile; the map displayed the 18-hole course, scoreboards, amenities, parking and offered real-time updates. The solution made navigation faster and easier for an estimated 50,000+ attendees, drove thousands of unique digital map visits, and prevented the printing of thousands of single‑use paper maps—lowering costs and waste.
