Abstract
A system for predicting a resting position of a golf ball may use ball tracking sensor data to identify an impact location of the ball. Modeling of ball movement following impact may be performed that incorporates measured ball impact physics, impact coordinates, and material properties of ground or objects to which the impact coordinates correspond and, together with historical shot data corresponding to the impact coordinates or an encompassing zone, bounce and roll behavior and/or final resting position predictions may be generated.
