SoCalRox Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 ... let me measure how far two points are from each other. Not driving directions, but point-to-point, or, in the vernacular, "as the crow flies." Can someone point me to a site that can do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick H. Supervisor Posted September 26, 2012 Supervisor Share Posted September 26, 2012 I don't know of a website, but couldn't you just use a ruler and compare it to the scale on the site? I know google maps provides a scale, so you would just need to compare the distance to that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teebor Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Google Maps Enable the rule function thingy http://support.google.com/maps/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1628031 http://www.vikitech.com/839/google-maps-adds-new-feature-distance-measurement-tool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
night_stalker_z Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 http://maps.google.com/ There should be a Maps Labs link in the bottom left of the screen. Click on it and enable 'Distance Measurement Tool'. The ruler should be on the bottom left of the map area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalRox Posted September 26, 2012 Author Share Posted September 26, 2012 Great! I KNEW Google Maps would have such a function but just couldn't find it. I have it enabled. Let's see if I am lucky! Thanks!!! Intrinsica... I'm already damned so this just makes it one level more of damnation. :woot: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
