it is dead easy - just point it at the target and click - it gives the distance. At over 150 metres, a tripod helps, unless you have very steady hands. It is useful for getting the exact dimensions of buildings or golf greens. These can then be plotted in josm using the measurement tool. -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
