Move the red crosshair with clicks. The heading of the map shows the GPS coordinates for the red crosshair. Write down the GPS coordinates of the target spot. Print these maps in color. |
Click image above. Search Terraserver for the nearest town to the location. Use the controls to move to location. Unfortunately there are no red crosshairs on Terraserver, but it does have the best aerial photos (better than Google Maps). Print these in grayscale. |
Select the elevation to see shape of terrain. The maps get fuzzy when you zoom in too far. Print these in gray scale. |
