Area Measurement

A window displays prompting the user to click on the map to start the measure.

 

Begin the measurement as directed. Keep clicking to define the polygon and then double-click to end it. As soon as a second vertex is added, the 'Measurement' window displays. The area is shown in this window and on screen as the cursor moves.

 

Select New Measurement to reset the drawn polygon and begin a new measurement.
