Frequently Asked Questions
Find comprehensive answers to common questions and get the expert guidance you need for optimal results
How accurate is the distance measurement?
Our tool uses geodesic calculations that account for the Earth's curvature, providing highly accurate distance measurements for any linear path.
What units of measurement are supported?
The tool supports both metric (meters, kilometers) and imperial (feet, miles) units. You can easily toggle between these systems.
Can I measure multiple path segments?
Yes! As you place points on the map, the tool automatically calculates and displays the length of each segment plus the total cumulative distance.
Can I measure curved paths?
The tool measures straight-line distances between points. For curved paths, place more points along the curve for better approximation.
