Results
Absolute (point coordinates) measurements results are displayed in WGS84 decimal degrees and in the CRS of any resource added to the publication.
Switching between WGS84 decimal degrees and any CRS of the published resources is accessible via Settings Menu in the left lower corner.
Relative measurements (distances, areas) will be calculated in an on-the-fly calculated local projection centered around the first measured coordinate. This local projections returns the most realistic metric result at all time.

Export Measurements

  • Add: the displayed measurement result will be copied to a table. For every added measurement code and comment information can be added.
  • Remove: selected measurement result will be removed from the table.
  • Remove all: all measurement results will be removed from the table.
  • Download: all results added in the table will be downloaded into “3DMappingCloud-Measurements-Export.kml” file.
