Hello Ryan,

We recently loaded Scale Finder 7 on our Windows 7 machines and it works
great.  Especially useful for antiquarian maps with obscure units of
measurement.

Best,

Marc

I just noticed that the Scale Calculator site that Terry Reese
maintained at Oregon State is no longer there...though it is available
from the Internet Archive:

Does anyone have another site with similar functionality?


Thanks in advance!
