A Few Google Maps Features Surveyors Can Use

Posted by Jaybird on May 31, 2010 at 5:30pm
I've been working a lot with online maps lately (ie LSU Member Map) and I came across a few hidden features for Google Maps that all of my land surveying buddies need to know about.

Distance Measurement in Google Maps Labs


How Do I get to Google Maps Labs?
Glad you asked...just go HERE when logged in to your Google or Gmail account.

And for those surveyors out there who use Google Chrome Browser, here is a nice extension called Select to Get Maps which allows you to select addresses on any web page to get a popup with links to show it on a map or get directions there.
Enjoy Surveyors....! Hope this comes in Handy!
