Method
All distances are straight-line distances (haversine formula) between the property's and the course's coordinates — driving distances are typically longer. The figures are computed directly from the catalog data on every page refresh, so they stay current as properties are added. The catalog covers Finland's golf courses and the accommodation around them; the figures are the full catalog, not a sample.
