Maps Ruler vs Timber Measure

Maps Ruler is a practical map measurement tool for distance, area, perimeter, circles, and route planning. MEASURE ON ANY VISIBLE MAP • Measure distance with two or more points • Calculate area and perimeter with three or more points • Draw a circle by setting its center and radius • Tap points or draw continuously to trace paths, boundaries, fields, plots, properties, and custom shapes • Edit points, inspect segment distances, and use undo or redo while you work LOCATION SUPPORT • Find your current position on the map • Measure places on the map without being physically there SAVE AND ORGANIZE YOUR WORK • Save, name, reopen, and update measurements • Review recent sessions and saved records • Switch between normal, satellite, and terrain map views • Search for places and addresses • Choose metric, imperial, or nautical units, including meters, kilometers, miles, yards, feet, hectares, acres, and more SHARE AND EXPORT Export map data in KML, KMZ, GeoJSON, or GPX formats for compatible map, GIS, Google Earth, and GPS apps. Back up and restore saved records when you need to transfer them. USE MAPS RULER FOR • Fields, farms, orchards, pastures, gardens, and plots • Property boundaries, fence lines, and perimeters • Walking, running, hiking, cycling, swimming, and boating routes • Golf holes, fairways, and target distances • Preliminary planning for landscaping, construction, roofs, solar layouts, and site work • Ponds, lakes, reservoirs, and coastlines • Roads, access routes, paths, and other custom shapes MAPS RULER PRO Upgrade for an ad-free experience, unlimited saved measurements, circle and precision tools, professional GIS export, and backup and restore. Monthly and yearly options are available. Prices and trial availability may vary by region. Maps Ruler does not require an account. Saved measurements and preferences remain on your device unless you choose to export or share them. Map results depend on map data, zoom level, and point placement. Current-location accuracy depends on the GPS signal. Maps Ruler is intended for practical map-based measurements and preliminary estimates. For legal boundaries or professional surveying, use certified survey data and equipment. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Timber Measure turns your iPhone into a timber measuring tool for the forest road and the log yard. LOGS — automatic diameters Point the camera at the log ends from 2–5 m and tap Capture. The app finds every log end and measures each diameter using the iPhone's LiDAR depth — no marker, no reference object, no manual pointing. Review the results drawn on the photo, remove any false hits, and get per-log volume by your national standard (Latvia LVS 82 built in; Huber, Smalian and Newton formulas available). Two-face mode for stacks where you photograph both ends. PILES — stacked wood, firewood, brush Measure length, width and height with LiDAR (aim the crosshair, tap — accurate to centimetres even at 10 m) or type them in. Pick the coefficient for your pile — debarked roundwood, roundwood with bark, loose/dumped wood, or fresh, compacted or coarse brush — and get gross and solid cubic metres. MANUAL — type diameters and lengths directly. HISTORY — every measurement saved on your phone with notes. Works fully offline. Nothing is uploaded — camera frames and LiDAR data are processed on the device and discarded. Requirements: LiDAR measuring needs iPhone 12 Pro or a later Pro / Pro Max model. Manual entry works on any iPhone. Results are field estimates; pile volumes depend on the coefficient you choose.
