Distance Measure vs GPS Odometer

This app lets you measure the point-to-point (great-circle) distance between two or more waypoints on a map or measure the surface area defined by a polygon having three or more points as its corners. It uses online maps so it needs an internet connection. Tap and hold to set a new waypoint, tap the options icon to read the manual or to open the settings view to change the map type or the measuring unit. You can choose between (kilo)meters, feet/yards/miles and nautical miles. The options menu also lets you choose to go to the Save/Restore view. Tap the calculated measurement at the bottom of the map to switch between feet/yards/miles or meters/hectometers/kilometers.

Ideal for almost anything that requires measuring outdoor distance traveled such as walking, running, driving, boating, hiking, etc. Note that GPS does not work well under a roof. For best results, use outdoors. Displays: - Distance - Time elapsed - Speed (average or current) - Displacement (straight line distance from your starting point). This can be hidden. Distance units include: - Kilometers - Miles - Nautical miles - Meters - Feet Speed units include: - Kilometers per hour - Miles per hour - Nautical miles per hour - Meters per second - Feet per second Other features: - Home screen Widgets. - Large font adjustable display. - Accurate to within 1 percent when compared to most car odometers under normal driving conditions. - Approximates distance traveled in some GPS dead spots (such as driving through a tunnel) by adding the as-a-bird flies distance to your trip. Please also note: - GPS Odometer does run in the background if you leave it running. Be sure to pause the trip when you are finished or battery life will be negatively affected. The timer stops when the trip is paused. Please visit the web page for more details.
