this is just an idea that i had right now. you could use excel or openoffice calc to calculate the euclidean distance between these two given landmarks you have. just import the coordinates of these landmarks to a spreadsheet and write a simple formula, something like this:
SQRT[(X2-X1)²+(Y2-Y1)²] (being (X1, Y1) and (X2, Y2) the coordinates of your two landmarks) hope this works, 'cause i've never tried it!
