[JackPike]

I have to draw a map of the waters for my local clubs waters nothing fancy just a general outline whats the best way or programm to use

[MrWiggly]

Get on to Multimap. Find your ponds and zoom in. Print a hard copy of the map. Photocopy pond into PC.

 

And away you go !!

Get on to Multimap.  Find your ponds and zoom in.  Print a hard copy of the map.  

Go to the ariel Photo option.

Print a hard copy of what you want and then, if that's not clear enough, you have something accurate to copy with tracing paper. You can add what details you want, after that.

Hi all,

 

http://www.magic.gov.uk/ is another good on-line program.

Get a map/ariel photo scanned into photoshop.

 

create a new layer.

 

select the new layer and use the brushes etc to outline the simple parts you want to show.

 

Delete the original layer.

 

Print top layer.

 

It's the modern equivelent of tracing paper :cool:
