Distance measurement Allows you to measure distances between two points at a bird's eye view. The tool allows you to measure several segments and to obtain the distance for each segment as well as the total distance of all segments combined. |
 |
Surface measurement Allows you to measure areas with their perimeters by drawing a polygon on the map. |
 |
Circular surface measurement Allows you to measure areas with their perimeters by drawing a circle on the map. |
2.Select the tool you wish to use.
