| I messed around with it for a while but I was not able to find both overhead projections that were needed. Let me see if I can figure it out. |

It looks like if you go here:
http://viewer.nationalmap.gov/viewer/
You can zoom in without using coordinates and click where it says Download Data at the top. I don't know if we are still able to download everything we need. That's up to the experts. |

Larry, I found it because it's 15 minutes from my house. It was the first course I saw lol.
I don't know about how to get the elevation files. There's a tab that says elevation but don't know what you get with it. Let me know what you hear Bill. |

I tried this and it works. They ask for your Email and then you click add to cart (it free though). The GeoTiff is emailed to you.
Problem I still see is you cant enter your own coordinates. So we are still pretty much screwed

| Why do we need to enter the coordinates though? Can't we just get the area we want in that box? |

| when you have found your course, the annotation tab has a draw rectangle tool, draw a square arounf the course, name it, download the elevation and orth. i got the iamge and the ned file. what is confusing is which one to select. |
