Looks like we are getting approval on some of our models guys.
Congratulations.

Keep up the great work.

Now! If I could only remember to turn off the snapshot layer before I
up load my models!! DOH!

Excellent! Just checked and my Gridley has been approved today.

Oh, just while I'm writing, you're probably all aware of it but just
thought I'd mention a Google Earth tool I found today that can help
with these models....

There is an 'historical imagery' tool in GE (it's the little clock
next to the sun icon). This enables you to look at imagery from
various timescales for your selected location (if indeed there is
any). This greatly helped me today figuring out Vacaville as the most
modern satellite image is in summer, so an abundance of trees mean the
view of the building is covered by foliage. By changing the view to an
earlier date, I was able to see the full building in winter and thus
the full unobscured footprint.

Just thought I'd share in case it helped anyone!
