Measure Map iphone app: land surveyors job done on iphone

Recently iphone has just launched a new application that will make land surveyors worry about loosing their jobs, with high end technology available on google maps, iphone app Measure Map took total advantage of this opportunity and has integrated this technology in their app.




So why will land surveyors need to worry? This app has every bit of information needed besides contours to map out a site plan. Measure Map iphone app uses google maps to give you the perimeter and calculate area of a site based on where you add points on the map, thus giving you at hand information for site meetings.
This will benefit architects, surveyors, contractors and any other job needed for calculating land area, making our life so much easier and more efficient.

I currently have this iphone app Measure Map on my iphone, developed by Victor Alonso and it really works great, the user interface is very user friendly, its programmed really well has no lag in terms of speed. Its very simple to use, just drop a pin on the corners of your site, and as you drawing each pin you will see a perimeter from pin to pin indicated in green. You can then complete the polygon to view the area of the site indicated in blue. Further more you can export this site with points ,areas and perimeters then email them to people and clients working on this project, or you could send it back to the office while you attend your next meeting. Currently you may export in google earth(KML) ,CSV and measure map format. The google map KML format is the most universal format to export and email to everyone. However im sure many of us could send it off to other iphone owners that use the same map. Other features include you being able to save the file and email it later or just save it to view at a later stage. You may also increase or decrease the size of the cross hair marker to suit your needs, additionally Victor Alonso designed iphone app Measure Map to have all the basic features of google maps, like altitude above sea level and search bars or a current location feature. All these tools will assist you on your day to day basis whether it be in the office or on site meetings, this app Measure Map is there to assist you.

Final Impressions: iphone app Measure Map is currently my most used and Favourite app during office hours. Infact my whole office is now using this app, as it helps architects more than ever before, you can use this app for small sites or large sites, either way i find it VERY accurate, infact i had a test done, i took a land surveyed drawing SG diagram, got the over all area then used iphone app Measure Map to compare. You guessed right, this app was exactly on target, all the boundary points were matching the surveyed drawing, and so was the area calculation. Once i saw this result i was sold,i used this app everyday since. The price is worth it and sells at $1,99 you wont regret buying this app. However if you need to try the first release on your iphone or ipod to see if you like it you may download it below, if you like it then i advise you buy it and support the developer so he keeps developing this app for future needs. In the future i hope to see the integration of contours so we can start designing our architecture as soon as we map out our SG diagram. Either than that feature missing this app is floorless. Leave us feedback if you need help or simply leave a comment to tell us how usefull you find this app. Download it from itunes HERE.

Download the crack version here below if you would like to try it before purchase.

DashCam iPhone gps and video log for directions.

Whilst a call explaining how to get to a place to an unfamiliar person worked in 2001 that
Year has passed and new means of directional bearing self aided has been Implemented by our developers. Gps has come in and has become a norm for many mobiles leaving gps devices a white elephant mainly sold to deep sea fisherman. DashCam is yet another iPhone app that exploits the capabilities
Of iPhone hardware. This iPhone app can record a video of you driving/walking/hiking ect and whist doing so this app can record your gps location log with direction and speed ect. All in ONE window. This app is more than directions, it's almost a virtual reality description of how to get to a point X.





Using this kind of iPhone app like Dash cam that records your gps location log in real time showing your movements makes the directions so easy to follow that I can see why the developers decided to integrate Social networking sharing capabilities. This makes it easy to share with family over YouTube or facebook, it's user-interface is simple, record and upload or save, you can also email this clip with the window of all gps and video shown in one.




Who would be using this app? Well if you have a website that promotes a company/product and would like to show people how to get to you on the web by embedding your YouTube video. You could simply just upload this video to facebook to show family where you went on the map. It's a superb function to have for many uses, depending on what you do or how creative you are, iPhone app DashCam could change the way you give directions to people as streaming of videos are becoming a norm, you will find that more people would prefer a gps application such as Dash Cam for iPhone.

High iPhone app

Using a gps to travel is nice, road gps such ad Garmin and Ndrive , Tom Tom all are road gps but dont offer features some athletes would appreciate.



Sportsman have different needs therefore they need a different app. For instance if you were a cliff hanger monkey you would want an app to evaluate your altitude and gauge your distance no matter where it is, you don't need to be on a road like regular gps to get data about your position. That's what makes high iPhone app unique, what I've really liked about this app Is it's ability to pick gps signal up from anywhere you are, indoor or outdoor, city urban space or rural environments. Other god apps have weak coding for locating decent signal indoors.




So to put this app to the test I decided to take the app Christmas shopping with me and leave it running in the background during my trip shopping recording the data used I could pickup how far I walked, how high my altitude was througout the trip, so changing levels in the shopping mall was pickedup aswel. All the data recorded by iPhone app high was accurate and reliable.



The best part of the app is you can see your recorder tracks highlighted in blue letting you know where you travel. This also works well as a track back feature if you in the bush where there's no roads and you need a way to get back to camp site.





Final impressions: High iPhone app is the best gps track recording app I have come across. Although without such a smart interface like iPhone this app wouldn't be possible, I feel high iPhone app should further exploit the capabilities of iPhone and integrate the compass making a record of the heading position throughout your trip. I believe all these features will be available in future updates and you will have what you need to climb mount everest and back then show the family how you did it..
