Jonathan, sorry, that's not possible to do.

Hi there,
I have a question about the distance calculator: Is there a way to import my route created using the Distance Calculator into Advanced Google Maps Distance Calculator, so that I can save the route for later use?

Hi, we want to use a map we created on the basis of the distance calculator for our chirtsmas card. Is this okay in terms of copyright? We are a non profit sailing team in Germany.

What a brilliant tool, especially when it always hits the ground regardless of trees or other objects in the way. I have a line along a drainage channel, Is it possible to display all the altitudes, rather than hover over each one and take a screenshot of each individual altitude?

Finally, it seems that a dumbo like me cannot get access.
I signed in, got your e-mail verification, activated my account and was happy to start exploring!
But I cannot get access to anything.
I tried to Sign-in again, but your system already has my info and therefore rejects me (it asks me to sign-in under another name).
What did I do wrong, how can I get access in your site?
Thanks!

When I type in 'Woodland, Maine' a view of Baileyville, Maine always comes up. Baileyville is NOT Woodland. Woodland, Maine is located in Aroostook County. Please fix this error. The state of Maine Supreme court has ruled that Baileyville can NOT use the name 'Woodland'.

I live in Manhattan KS and have used Daft Logic Altitude for 20 years. Since Google purchased Daft Logic altitude, the elevation measurements are off by more than 2% since Google took over. No one can rely on this current tool at all. Reason: Manhattan KS is in a bowl with a large lake above (just like New Orleans). Hydrology is a huge economic factor here when planning any type of infrastructure. Very costly mistakes are made here because of the lack of accurate elevation (altitude) tools for the public and for the city planners. Please revert to the original tool, which was accurate compared to building professionals and state officials. To be candid, your current altitude tool is a disgrace to science and the public.
Please correct this and then use our community as a \"poster child\" to illustrate the economic value of your product to our community and others. 25% of blood pressure cuffs and outdoor thermometers may be off by 15-20% as Consumer Reports has indicated.. We all depend on these products to be accurate. Please do your part for our great society. Steve Pfister

Ian, you are right, there is a degree of error introduced because of this. However to counteract the error, each time a corner is 'out' from the real location, the error is the same for each corner, so the net effect is the error cancels out.

When using the area calculator to measure the area of a building (in plan view), does picking the corners of the roof-top produce accurate measurements? I understand that the pins 'hit a point on the ground' but I'm wondering if, when in plan view, the elevations of the buildings are 'geo-corrected'. I hope this makes sense... I wish I could ask my question in more articulately. Thanks!

Is there a print option was the surface area is selected?

Hi,
Would you consider a control z / undo feature? If there is one- where is it? Thanks - your site is awesome!!
