Best Apps for Measuring Land Area & Distance

All of us want to achieve great results In anything we do, but when it comes to surveying land, we probably feel like amateurs. Surveying land takes technical equipment and training, right? Plus you probably don’t carry that kind of equipment around with you. So what if you had the equipment on your phone? With apps for measuring land area and distance, you can get a quick survey of any piece of land you’re curious about or working on. And these tools can take you far beyond simple measurements. 

You see, along with being able to survey land quickly, your phone can even help you be smarter. What good is it to have land measurements if you can’t quickly get an estimate on the area of the land? Sure, we can all get the area of a square or rectangle fairly easily, right? The only problem is, most plots of land don't come in rectangles or squares. When's the last time you found an area for a shape that had 6 irregular sides? What about broken down into feet and inches? It will save you a lot of time and hassle to let your phone do the measuring and then the multiplying. 

While learning practical skills, like multiplying measurements to find area, is easier to do on your phone, these land area apps are incredibly helpful when looking at a map. It's not every day you can just drive out to a plot of land and get measurements on your phone to check out various properties and yards. However, it only takes a few minutes to lookup an address on your phone and survey the land on the map. With these advanced tools at your disposal, you won't even need to see the land in person to check out the entire plans of a property. Instead, you can get the measurements, multiply for the area, and survey any plot of land quickly right from your phone.
