What is the best sketchup program to use to import historical maps like Sanborn Fire insurance maps. Then I would use the structure outlines to "build" the buildings. Thanks.
Hi, I have just imported a trial of Placemaker, but I can not expand the tool, to geet all the rods and other things. All I get is five options, the area , that I did select and place. but not the expanded panel ?
Hi Justin, Seems like a great tool, but I wonder if I could use it in Israel, since we don't have high res footages for security reasons… you can zoom in only so much..
Justin, I see Placemaker has MapBox, Hexagon, BlueSky, and NearMap for importing imagery. Is NearMap the highest quality of map compared to Hexagon and BlueSky?
