How to make UI elements same size regardless of distance

Question

Hello,

I'm trying to make a point of interest app using unity. It resembles the monocle app of Yelp, which displays info of nearby places on a screen. My method is to convert the gps coords to unity coords, then place UI elements at these coords. I also set the canvas to World Space. However in my preview the text elements becomes too small to read. How can I keep the size of the text always same regardless of distance? alt text

Just draw them on screen space.

Project the 3D world coordinate in 2D screen space using Camera.WorldToScreenPoint
Draw your 2D UI items on those coordinates.
