I would like to use OpenStreetMap to help wade through the tons of orthophotos available on line from State of California, so as to save time over the tedious method of downloading the files, loading them into the GIS, and trying to identify a landmark! Is there a way to see the coordinates (preferably UTM, but latitude/longitude would work) of the map display, or of the mouse cursor? Thank you. asked 04 Jan '11, 06:56 Catlike |
In the editor, press CTRL+SHIFT+L to display the Location Panel. answered 09 Jan '23, 11:20 joper34 |
If you are using the editor potlatch 1 you can get the location coordinates of the mouse by pressing the l-key. Don't know if such a key exists in potlatch 2 though - the help does not state any... answered 04 Jan '11, 07:31 katpatuka No, there's currently no equivalent key in Potlatch 2.

There are many many way to do this. The first three that come to mind:
Another possibility would be to create a small page with openlayers using Openstreetmap tiles and and a MousePosition Control. answered 04 Jan '11, 07:45 petschge |
