Area Survey App
Use this application to make an exact plot of a room, a property or any two dimensional area. Measure distances and angles, calculate side lengths, diagonals and angles. Export the plot to Sketchup or other CAD systems.
How to Use
- Make the reference line A - B (a virtual or physical line between two points)
- Measure the distance A - B
- Mark measure points clockwise from 1 to 9
- Measure distances from control points A and B to each measure point
- Click Calculate to generate the survey plot
Plot Colors:
- Control line A - B: black
- Measured lines: purple
- Calculated sides and angles: red
- Calculated diagonals: green
Calculated Results
After entering your measurements and clicking Calculate, the following will be computed:
- Calculated Angles: Internal angles at each measured point
- Calculated Sides: Side lengths connecting consecutive points
- Calculated Diagonals: Diagonal distances across the surveyed area
Export Options
