Abstract: Techniques are provided for implementing a system for determining the range to a target object. In implementations, a system for determining a range estimate to a target includes a rangefinder, a camera, a display and at least one processor. A processor may acquire an image from the camera, identify a target flagstick within the image acquired from the camera and modify pixels proximate to the identified target flagstick of the image to generate a modified image contrasting the target flagstick from objects in the background. The processor may calculate a range estimate to the target flagstick using the rangefinder and present, on the display, the modified image and a representation of the range estimate of the target flagstick.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for implementing a system for determining the range to a target object and orienting a map. In implementations, GPS data is used to determine the location of the system and an approximate distance from that location to the target. Based on the approximate distance, one or more parameters of operation of the system may be set. Modes of operation may be entered to further adjust parameters of operation. An optical pulse may then be projected at the target and its reflections collected and analyzed to calculate a distance measurement. A visual display may be adjusted based on the calculated distance estimate to the target.
