Building drawings

Russ, great write-up on the geography and history. I enjoyed it too. Seems I remember that California is the most diverse state concerning flora and fauna. Also seem to remember that Texas was second.

Torikoos, google-earth is great for getting the big dimensions of the building. It has a measuring tool built in, and you can zoom in close, compromising on the size versus clarity, and then get accurate dimensions. Then go to Bing Maps on Bird's Eye view to look at all four walls of the building. Then as was mentioned, some extrapolating and ratios will help with the other dimensions. Forgive me if you know all this already! :oops:

Hi There Gary, I did know it had some sort of measuring tool, but I haven't played with it too much to be comfortable with.
I will give it a shot to see if it is fairly accurate. Does it work out of street view, or should I use it from the position of the great eye in the sky?

Cheers, Koos
