I used my smartphone with the Commander Compass application in order to GPS coordinates of local fire hydrants. The process was fairly simple, my grandmother and I walked around and at each hydrant I took a screenshot of what the Compass GPS was showing. A few people thought I was taking pictures of their fire hydrants, which led to some interesting conversations. Originally, I loaded the coordinates wrong when making my .csv file, which led to my coordinates showing Grosse Ile, MI instead in Dearborn when I uploaded the KML file to google earth. Fortunately, it didn't take too long to correct the problem.
