This is the real thing, with the data filled in
The model above is drawn from an outline, the same way it is drawn for a lawn traced from the satellite view. Give it your own address and your own shape, and this is what you get: the area worked out as you draw, the grass and the sun you chose changing how it looks, and a week of work beside it.
The difference on your own lawn is that it moves. Rain that has already fallen skips the watering, heat pushes a spray to a cooler day, and photos stack up beside the work so you can see whether any of it landed.
The MCG is drawn to its published dimensions: the published playing surface, an oval of 171 by 146 metres. This app has no connection to the ground itself.
