Location

To measure distances using geographic coordinates, click the Location Measurement   tool.

  • The application immediately begins tracking the geographic location of the cursor on the map.

  • Click once in the map for a starting point. Since the cursor is at the exact location where you clicked, the latitude and longitude are the same until you move the cursor.

  • As you move the cursor around on the map, the cursor's latitude and longitude location change accordingly.

    TIP: You can still zoom and pan the map while measuring. To pan, click and hold to drag the map into position.

  • At this point, if you click once in the map, the green Location  icon moves to that location, which becomes the new starting point.

  • Click the coordinate drop-down to change between decimal degrees and degrees, minutes, seconds.

To stop placing coordinate points, click the Location Measurement tool to toggle it off.
