First login Google Earth Pro

Then some setting changes are required

Fill the name of the area that is explored

Next to do is to localize the map center

This happens by clicking on the yellow pin

Now the point coordinates may be taken

Export this data in MS Excel

Next is to specify map's length and height

Do the length specification as shown

Then export the data to the same Excel file

Repeat the same action to specify the length

Now determine Lower Left and Upper Right

Do the simple calculations like shown

It is time to Save the map in jpg. format

Then use Paint to convert the file in bmp.

Open EPANET 2.0

First do the required settings changes

Change the measuring units in a proper way

Then switch Auto-Length On function

Now is to Backdrop the bmp. file (map)

Tthe workspace capacity is not used at all

Therefore a properscaling is required

Don't forget to select "meters" as a Map Units

It is expanded and use the whole work screen

Now the scaling model has to be verified

Select two nodes and connect it with a pipe

Now check what is the pipe length in EPANET

Then measure the same distancse in Google Earth

After comparing the two results

It can be seen that there is a perfect corresponding

Thus the validation is completed successfully

Save the verification pipe (if necessary)
