Does anyone have a formula for calculating acreage based on using a topo map? Any guidance and assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Sure...be sure to know the scale of the map. Then, read the contours where your site sits. Then, draw a pencil line around the contours higher than yours which will funnel into your site. Then, measure the area, length x width and calculate using the scale. You can get a good estimate that way.
