Using our DIY measurement feature, this guide is designed to help you quickly measure small, segmented, or scattered property areas.
This tool eliminates the need for external applications like Google Earth by consolidating all property maps into one system. Additionally, it sets the stage for seamless integration with your internal systems, streamlining your workflow and enhancing efficiency.
Let's see how it's done.
Steps to Create an Order and Perform DIY Measurements
1. Enter the Property Address
Input the property address as usual.
This will load the necessary imagery of the location.
2. Start Drawing Your Parcels
Begin by drawing the required parcels or sections directly on the map.
Important: Do not select any features from the list at this stage.
The system will recognize this as a DIY measurement session, assigning 0 hours for system calculations since measurements are manually created.
3. Add a New Layer
Click the Add Layer button to define the type of area you want to measure:
Example: Choose Turf for grass sections or Mulch Beds for garden beds.
Once selected, proceed to Edit the layer.
4. Draw and Modify Areas
Use the Draw Tool to outline the specific area for the selected layer:
Click around the area to create polygons that match the shape of the section.
Double-click to finish the drawing of each polygon.
Adjust the drawn sections as needed to ensure they accurately represent the property.
5. Add More Layers (If Needed)
To include additional property features, repeat the process:
Add a new layer.
Select the type of feature.
Use the Draw Tool to create polygons for those areas.
6. Finalize the Measurement
Review all layers to confirm accuracy.
Save the draft view when satisfied with the measurements.
