on google maps you can easily find the distance between any 2 points - to the nearest foot - either straight line distance - or it can be broken into segments - maybe it can be measured along roads or arcs also
so if anyone needs to find the distance between a structure and a hydrant - it can be done quickly on Google Maps The 'procedure / process' is - click on ruler on upper left of map - click on start point on map - click on next point on map - click on next point on map - etc for measuring road distances - we use the 'directions' tool - then examine the map layer that is created to see the travel time and distance -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "massfire" group.
