@Chris,
I’m planning to give the distances in feet for all US addresses as per default. Will do that with the next update.

Would be cool to select Metric or English systems, but otherwise very nice indeed. Maps needs some way to 3D angle the view or get closer. I had an install scheduled this morning but they couldn’t find a spot– I’m fenced in by trees. May trim but with this it might be okay on the garage.

Pretty nice, would also be nice if it calculate the altitude of the terrain to compare to max object hight, I live at 82 meters above sea level with a bunch of south high hills.

Alan,
This is a fantastic tool. I am about to install motorized dish and wondered how the house to the south of me can block my view. Placing the “tree” where the house is and trying a bunch of birds, I am now certain that my view is ok. Thanks to you.

Possibly, yes. I’ll add it to my to-do list.
