I thought I'd give the measuring tools in J2E a workout and rather than have no particular
purpose, gave myself an open ended question to answer using the Google maps and J2E. I might have missed a school off, but these were my main contenders for the biggest school playing field.
If you think I've missed the biggest, reply to this post and let me know. Better still, if you're a J2E user, prove me wrong by using the software!
Interestingly, I only needed to calibrate the 1st map I pasted as I needed the scale tool. after that, it could be cropped out.
