yeah, i got it to work though it didn't open automatically. i set chrome browser to open the file and it didn't open google earth as in this video, but when i checked your places , clicked maps, then re-opened the saved map and set it to satellite view. being able to tilt in and rotate it is wonderful feature, thanks for this helpful video.
Made my day with the second method.. Many thanks. Now if only I can figure out how to import My Places into the the new browser version of Google Earth Pro and how to overlay an image onto a site..
Did you ever find a solution for plotting your parcel by metes and bounds, direction and distance from corner to corner, for either Google Earth or or Google Maps?
Everyone, please know that these are not property boundaries, and certainly not accurate. They're only approximate depictions of your property, and nothing else. And as others have mentioned, there could be a shift between GE and on the ground locations using your GPS or phone.
yeah im having the same issue. seems they have updated their maps to no longer show property boundaries. I am hearing rumors you can overlay public GIS data but no luck figuring out how.
@@davidmiller47 Google Maps is still displaying property boundaries in the areas that I have checked but it is likely that this is not the case for all areas of the world. You do have to zoom in a lot before they show.
Your video is great.... It Will help me big time however I don’t get the light gray lines for the property boundaries..... Is there some kind of setting that needs to be turned on or is it just not provided by the County?
Very cool. However, please don't build a structure predicated on a google map. They are not accurate enough for that. There is a 30' discrepancy on my 5-acre property.
Im sure that for a small fee Alan would be glad to go out and show you exactly how this is done. But dont hold your breath while your waiting. lol Meanwhile there are people out there known as surveyors, who make a living locating property lines.
"Meanwhile there are people out there known as surveyors, who make a living locating property lines" and they will charge you $$$ thousands of dollars to find your property lines for you
