Prepare simple imagery-based field maps in Google Earth
Skill level needed: Basic/Intermediate/Advanced
Sample designs supported: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Use this tutorial to manually generate A3 or A4 paper field maps with imagery base maps for each PSU. A benefit of Google Earth is that imagery tends to be very high resolution and fairly current, and no special GIS skills are required. However, a limitation of this tool is that each PSU map must be generated manually; there is no batch processing capability. Users with GIS skills might use Tutorial D4 instead to batch produce PSU maps with satellite imagery base maps.
