Hi all,

Some time ago someone posted a link to a webpage (was it the website owner?) that used Google Earth to measure the declination of a wall. And to generate a paper vertical sundial that can be pasted onto your window (inside or outside). Maybe this could be used to calculate the orientation of the sticks for the multignomon sundial.

Problem is, I now don't have the website address. Does anyone have the address?

Roderick Wall.

I would like to thank Roderick for the solution, and Frank for pulling my leg. I
appreciate that ...

While taking a walk this morning I thought that it would work with an equatorial dial, but I did not get far enough to realize that equatorial gnomons would do
the trick.

But the dial I had in mind would be vertical and facing south-east, and I can see no way, with my limited abilities, to get the angles of all those gnomons
right. Any ideas?

Dammit!
Hannes
