hi all,
as you can see this is my first post on this forum and i dont exactly know the norms out here, so please go easy on this newbie 
i am new to sketchup, but have good experience with AutoCAD & reasonably good experience with 3D StudioMAX.
i am doing a project in sketchup at the moment and am looking to get some help with GPS co-ordinates. what i am looking for specifically is -
i need to model a wind turbine on a site and give a 3D visual of the turbine from various points on neighbouring sites. these visuals need to be superimposed with the photos taken from these points too.
so far i have managed to -
- get the site (terrain) from google earth on to sketchup.
- modeled the turbine.
what is left to do is what i am struggling with - - the view points have GPS co-ordinates and it has to be exact on the site.
- the turbine also has GPS co-ordinates and it has to be in the exact location.
- the final image should have the terrain shown as TIN grids.
i am sure i am not the first person to do this on sketch up. i did my search and it didnt get me too far. may be i am searching for the wrong thing? however i have come across this name GAIEUS all over the google search results.
