[QUOTE="Twinfisher1, post: 555748, member: 18328"] Hi all, I am Located in Victoria and have been to WA only once but hopefully coming back next year. I am working on the Google Earth Pro and Iphone useage while I am out in the fields here in Vic. I am also working on stuff for the WA trip. If you are not familiar with the things you can do in Google Earth Pro, here are a few of them.... 1) When you have down loaded the Google Earth KMZ (Zip) file into GE Pro these files are unzipped by GE Pro and appear in the far left hand column, you can then expand that list so that you can see all of the listed Tenements. You can then check or un-check any or all of the listed tenements and only leave checked the Tenements you wish to see. 2) You can change the color of the Tenements to reflect Better the current status of the Tenements you are interested in ie. change Pending to green (for go) and Live to Red for Stop No Go. 3) If you isolate all the Tenements you are not interested in and only show those of interest you can then zoom right down into the Tenement then drop a pin point into each corner of the Tenement and from there obtain the GPS Co-ordinates of that corner. To be safe I drop the pin inside the boundary a little so know I am OK. 4) Using my Iphone 6s from Google Maps I down load a map of the area where the Tenement is located then add the GPS co-ordinates of the pins I have placed in GE Pro. I can then use this map as an off line map on my Phone when I don't have phone reception. Graeme [/QUOTE]
