The Leica DISTO™ Plan app assists you with the vital task of documenting and visualizing your measurements. Fingers can be used to sketch a floor plan on a smartphone or tablet and corresponding measurements are easily assigned to each line of the plan. This way you can easily plan the next steps of your project. Sketch Plan — create a scale drawing Simply use your fingers to create a sketch on your smartphone or tablet. Then take corresponding measurements and assign them to the relevant lines of your sketch. The app’s ‘Auto-Scale’ function automatically adjusts the length of the lines, producing a scaled drawing showing the surface area and circumference. You can now improve the accuracy even further with the Diagonals feature. Producing a CAD-ready floor plan is that easy. Smart Room — plan while you are measuring Smart Room makes it possible to create accurate floor plans simply by taking clockwise or counterclockwise measurements of a room. Once all measurements are taken, the app automatically generates the plan. The diagonals feature will further enhance accuracy. Sketch on Photo — dimension objects in pictures Leica DISTO™ Bluetooth® technology allows you to assign distance measurements to the appropriate part of a picture taken with your tablet or smartphone. This way you can document all your measurement results and easily process them later in the office. Measure Plan — create as-build plans for CAD The Leica DISTO™ app supports P2P technology which makes it possible to create detailed floor or wall plans, including doors and windows. Once complete, simply export your plans as a DXF or DWG file into your preferred CAD solution. Measure Façade – create detailed wall layouts Easily generate intricate wall layouts using P2P technology. This feature is designed for measuring 2D plans on vertical surfaces. You define a vertical plane, and the function will automatically project all measured points onto this plane for precision and clarity in your wall layouts. Then simply export your plans as a DXF or DWG file into your preferred CAD program. Earthworks – determine exact excavation volumes Thanks to P2P technology you can calculate precise excavation volumes, making it ideal for purposes such as billing and transport cost estimation. Simply measure the outline of the desired excavation and set the depth either by entering a value or by measuring it directly by your DISTO. Function also allows you to define angles for the slope. Measure 3D – draw precise 3D plans Generate accurate 3D plans and seamlessly integrate data into CAD. Leverage the power of P2P technology for real-time 3D measurement visualization directly at the project site. Measurements can be then exported as a DXF or DWG file. Alternatively, you can choose the PDF Pro export with all the detailed information and measurement workflow. Relocation – add new dimensions to your measurements Empower your project flexibility with the Relocation function, enabling you to effortlessly shift your setup to a new location while seamlessly integrating essential data into your existing drawing. This feature is invaluable in situations where acquiring all necessary measurements from a single setup isn't feasible. Exports in standard formats — seamless integration All measurements and floor plans can be exported as a CAD drawing, JPG or in a PDF format. CAD exports are possible as DXF or DWG format, which allows to seamlessly integrate the measurement data with digitized construction. PDF export detailed reports include all created measurements in easy to read and understandable structure. The following Leica DISTO™ devices are supported: Leica DISTO™ D1 Leica DISTO™ X1 Leica DISTO™ D2 Leica DISTO™ D2-2 Leica DISTO™ D2G Leica DISTO™ D110/E7110i Leica DISTO™ X3 Leica DISTO™ X4 Leica DISTO™ D510/E7500i Leica DISTO™ D810 touch Leica DISTO™ S910 Leica DISTO™ D5 Leica DISTO™ X6
