you can go to google planimeter and use the satellite view. It allows you to place points on the map and will give you the size.

Try this: Goggle Planimeter. http://acme.com/planimeter/


This will calculate pond sizes.

This is a little bit of a hijack, but I tried the link on a field trial pasture near Katy. I got the 4 points, but didn't know how to get the size of the field. Help!!!!!!!!!!!
