I need to start on the development of our rural property. Need to figure out the layout - placement of septic, power, house, shop, road etc. Been sketching it out on an engineering pad, but of course this is not very flexible when running "what-if" scenarios.

Is there a fairly user friendly program that would allow me to make some plans for something like this?

In addition, I have access to an aerial photograph of our property, and would like to put this in the drawing program. Then be able to layout the various structures/roads within the aerial picture... if that makes any sense. Another words, I'd like to not have to draw in all the various tree stands, drainage ditches, creeks etc if possible. It would be nice to be able to scale the locations off the picture, but that is probably asking a little much.

Thanks
Wayne
