Advanced Modelling_ terrain + arrays

GIS viewer 

print out site for sketching on - Bitmap(pixel image) Go to globe > print or copy map > print scale as...  > map size a4 a3 > portrait or landscape > print to pdf (make sure to turn off pop up block)

extracting data > autocad dxf > tick CRS parcel (boundary/ property line) > tick contours
