Using my phone and an app called “onAverage” I mapped out the GPS locations of the forest parameter and all other key items such as the transformer pad and driveway entrance.
This means, the edge of the forest is located exactly where I measured it, and all other points of interest on the build site. My goals were simple: I’ve designed my new house in Rhino and I needed to confidently position it into my digital property to reveal the true space I have to work with. But before I get side-tracked, let’s start at the beginning for the sake of a complete record and for all those out there needing this kind of solution. Ironically, the stickiest part of my solution was getting any kind of confirmation from R7 indicating “EarthAnchorPoint” actually took. I’ve found some time to work through this and I’m happy to say there is a solution I was able to use.
