-
As you move your mouse:
-
Terrain shows elevation above sea level

Click your first point, then your second point
-
A profile view appears showing the terrain and obstruction details
-
Hover over the profile to see exact elevation at each point
-
Press Esc to end the segment
-
Press Esc again to reset and start a new measurement
-
You can manually adjust the height of the first and second point to calculate clearance
