[QUOTE="loamer, post: 73432, member: 981"] It would take a mini-course to teach this stuff. I did a day google earth course at work (the commercial version - which is about the same but corporations have to pay to use) and I am just starting to get my head around it. Same with GIS data - GIS data software, map conversions, Memory Map, google maps, blah blah blah. AND THEN - converting chains to metres to long and lats, upside down maps etc etc. Ever seen a Victorian goldfields Chinese map? bloody hell!!!!!!! My old mates trick? Blank butchers paper - a compass, a set of coloured pencils a topo map and about 30 years experience. :lol: [/QUOTE]
