rush_tech Posted May 7, 2021 Posted May 7, 2021 Currently using an old copy of Autoroute to measure distance on a map as the crow flies. I've tried using Google maps to do this there needs to be 2 separate distance measured from the same point (appeals for school entry) Google maps will allow you to measure 1 distance but not 2 as far as I can see. Does anybody know how to do this? What does your school use to do this? Thanks
paulkerton Posted May 7, 2021 Posted May 7, 2021 Google Earth Pro will let you draw multiple paths, and the measurement of distance will be stored in the properties of the path when you save it. 1

jthompson Posted May 7, 2021 Posted May 7, 2021 Here's a list of sites that might be able to do it using OpenStreetMap. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Track_drawing_websites Just tried this one - https://gpxstudio.github.io/ - which let's you do it. The hamburger menu gives you the option to use crow routing. You can then click 'Draw' in the top menubar to start each new route (as many as you like). 1

rush_tech Posted May 18, 2022 Author Posted May 18, 2022 Thought I'd update this! The answer was staring me in the face. Windows Maps
Andrew_C Posted May 18, 2022 Posted May 18, 2022 I see you are sorted, but a couple more to look at:- https://wego.here.com and the app I've got on my tablet at home that I can't remember the name of. It allows you to click waypoints, and calculated walking distance based on that. I'll try to remember to update later.
