How to use the dataset
This dataset can be used to look at the variety of tennis courts available in the United States and their associated amenities. It includes vital information such as address, city, region, type of court (public/private/etc.), capacity, amenities (clay/grass/indoor etc.), and latitude/longitude coordinates. This data can be used to generate maps with tennis court locations around a certain area or to analyse the distribution of tennis courts across different states. Additionally you can filter for specific types of courts or certain amenities and use this information for research purposes or to find a suitable court for sports activities.
To begin using this dataset we suggest taking a look at the columns included in it so that you understand what type of data is available. Afterward you will want to explore your data by filtering rows by a specific state, city or zip code in order to narrow down your search area if desired. Then you can further filter results by other criteria such as the type of court, capacity or whether there are clay or grass playing surfaces amongst other things. A powerful tool when using this database is map visualization since location coordinates are provided - which allows easy identification even when names might not reveal all details about a place. Once you have identified an area that meets your needs then its best practice verify availability and more detailed information with more research before hand like calling up any relevant contacts for more details
