Abulsme Random Spot Tool

Press the Randomize button to add a random spot to the map. The default settings will give a random spot anywhere on the planet, with bearing and distance from my house.

 

Each of the parameters on the left can be changed to generate points with specific bearing and distance bounds from any starting point.

 

You can see some of the trips I have taken with this technique here.

Google changed something in July 2018 that broke the map on the right. Well, it kinda still works, but with errors and watermarks. I will fix it someday when I have time. Which may not be for awhile. Sorry.
