I think you may get into trouble for trying that technique on a tall
building!

I had heard about the android application, and am a bit sceptical about how
accurate it can be, but I suppose if you want to know if something is 50m or
100m tall it will be ok....I'll give some thought to the accuracy of the
method next time I am bored for a couple of hours...
