General Discussion / CAD data to small map
March 23, 2011, 02:21:05 PM
Oregon 450 idea.

Alright i know this is not as accurate as a survey but I would like to make a map with some lines just of my moms property so I can tell if a few trees are on her property or the neighbors.  The neighbors are all cool and probably wont mind if i tap them for maple syrup or not.  I posted this on another forum and didnt get very far.  Can i make a CAD drawing and inport that to my gps with some sort of software or is there some other way to do it. 

I did project a point to her corners but when I was walking if i went around a tree i would have to watch the pointer to get back on track.  Looking for something easier that I can see what side of the line I'm on.  If the trees im looking at have a 10 foot accuracy on the gps i know im good from where i project the line.  also if i am off by more than that I can just tag the tree and ask the neighbor.

Just looking to be close and an easy way to do it.

General Discussion / Topo map scales
February 07, 2011, 08:33:53 AM
Can anyone tell me about the Michigan topo map that is 24k scale and the Northeast Topo United States Part 1 of 3 Map?  I think that maybe the NE Topo is 100K scale?  Can anyone confirm for me as I have both loaded onto my Oregon and may want to remove one of them.
