M325is 0 Report post Posted December 3, 2008 yeah im a pizza guy so its really handy to be able to see what house your looking for, before you leave. Nothing harder to try and find a house at 10pm when its pissing down with rain and the numbers on the letterbox are all faded! I wouldn't rely on their street numbers, they have mine WAY wrong.

SIR E30 68 Report post Posted December 3, 2008 I've just been thinking - this is going to change how I do work. I can look at a site before I go. I can see what traffic control is required - is there room on the side of the road to park vehicles and machinery? Can I see around the bend, or is it vegetated?? Resource consent applications - show sightlines, look at the current type and grade of access, condition/width of road carriageway. And heaps more. I like! My thoughts exactly!! you're not a surveyor/engineer of some sort?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

QuickSilver 0 Report post Posted December 5, 2008 My car is in its present state outside my house as always Must have been 4 months ago cos neighbors still have trees, they dont now. I think its a good idea, but it can be used for bad things just like everything else, just like people can survey areas for work, thieves can study their target in depth (if they get that forward thinking!)
