Using the Measure Lines & Area app 
Measure Lines & Area is used in one of two modes to either measure an open polyline length, or closed surface area. A line measurement shows the length and total length; an area measurement also shows the surface area of the measured region. Measurements are saved in a .csv file.
You can measure areas using GNSS (
), Real World (
/ 
/ 
) or Model (
) based measurements.
To measure a line or area:
-
Measure the first point.
When measuring points for a line or area, they are shown as a blue sphere.
-
Measure the second point. The yellow line is shown between the two points.
The length between the points appears in a panel on the left of the screen, along with the current surface area defined by the measured points (0 m2 for a straight line).
-
Continue to measure required points.
As you measure more points, the measurements shown on the left of the screen show the length between the last 2 points, and also the total length from the first measured point to the last point and the area defined by the measured points.
-
If required, you can delete any point by double-tapping it.
-
If you need to insert a point after any previously measured point, tap the previously measured point to 'activate' it, then measure your new point. The new point is inserted after the 'activated' point.

-
Tap the Area checkbox in the panel on the left side of the screen to toggle between measuring an open polyline or a closed surface area. When measuring an area the surface is displayed in purple.
-
When you have finished measuring a line or area, tap
to complete the measurement. To cancel the entire current line or area you are measuring, double-tap
