Hi All,

I have 4 new wrecks I am trying to plot on Google Earth as they are all grouped together, perhaps 200-300 feet apart maximum in one location.

While I enter Lat/Lon for one and it shows up perfectly in Earth, when I try to add the other 3 wrecks it doesn't "take"-what shows up is the 2nd location I entered-the first gets walked on and disappears.

I can't get them all in one Earth image. How do I plot multiple locations on one Earth map??

Wild stuff, pictures and video to follow at some point.

Thanks.

Easy. Enter first location and hit enter. Google will plot the location. Then enter the second location and hit enter. Google will plot the second location. Now, directly underneath the location just entered should be the first location. Check the box next to it and both locations now appear.

Bonus Tip: Go to Tools and select the Ruler Tool. It can be used to determine how far one point is from another.
