What you should have said was: In the Real World, practically nobody uses Linux
so there will be no problem at all.

:-))

Google for "operating system market share 2014" . Linux market share is +/- 1 %.
Not that is is neglectable - I'd like to have 1% of all the money in the world.
,But you'll get my point.


Anyway, nice that Google Earth Pro is now for free. I had a paid version for
some years, and I used it in the past to calculate surfaces of polygons (and
undegrround rooms also -> load in the survey as an image overlay and scale it
correctly. Draw a polygon over the areas that you want to know the surface off,
and voilà...
