Planimeter GPS Area Measure vs iBal Fixed

Planimeter GPS Area Measure is a tool to measure distance, area, and perimeter on a map. You can measure manually or by GPS tracking. You can also check the bearing and geo-coordinates of your location and share them. Points can be labeled, saved, and shared in KML format. This measurement app is useful for outdoor activities and can be used as land surveyor by amateurs and professionals in various industries like sport, farming, landscaping, paving and construction, road building and repairing, real estate business, hiking and travel, fencing, lot building and planning, solar panel installation (roof area estimation), object mapping, lawn design, and many other where land area and distance/length calculations, land survey or maps are involved. # Features: • Accurate distance measurements • Metric and Imperial units (m, km, feet, yards, miles, ha, acres) • GPS accuracy settings (if GPS available) • Current location search • Delete selected/last/all points • Zoom to Fit-in and center points on a screen - quick points search • Add points by touch • Add the current location as a point • Option to center the point added • Option to show/hide lines • Preferences: location accuracy, tracking time interval, delete points confirmation, sound option for tracking • Separate units settings for distance, area, and perimeter. # Premium Features (Require Subscription): • Area calculation • Angle between lines • Bearings to and from the point • Forward and backward navigation through points by touch on the Info Panel • GPS coordinates of a point • Manage previously saved projects: open, save, share KML files • KML files created by Planimeter can be imported to GEarth and GMaps to view on a desktop • Send data by email: picture, coordinates as a text message, KML file • Save KML or TXT in local storage • Map/Satellite View • Zoom and Edit points • Text (address) search • Find the location by entering the Latitude and Longitude coordinates • Add points by entering geo-coordinates: Lat and Lng • Target Mode for accurate pin placement • Show current coordinates in Target Mode • Draw (Stylus) Mode • Notes Mode • Full-screen option • GPS TRACKING • Manual pin placement in GPS Tracking # The app has been successfully used in different areas: • outdoor activities: sports, golf (distance between two points or holes), bike tours, trail planning, travelling, quick path measure • garden and yard: landscape planning, grass cutting, lawn care and mowing, fencing, grass seeding. • agriculture, poultry, and farming: harvesting, fertilizing, crops (corn, wheat, maize, beet, etc.), planning and estimation, field area measure, paddocks and area fencing for cows, horses, chickens, rabbits, etc. • solar energy: area estimation for solar panels, flat roof area estimation • construction: land survey, road sealing, parking lot repairing • Forestry: objects and tree mapping, damage area estimation, measuring land area • other: pond size is measured; pole lines planning; movement tracking; get exact GPS coordinates of way-points; fence calculation; geocaching. # Learn more If you have any questions about Planimeter and its functionality, please find the How To Use Quick Guide on this page: https://www.vistechprojects.com/vistech-projects-downloads Video Demo: http://youtu.be/unjYbPCIYM0 http://youtu.be/QQMilHVD5e8 # Note: Continued use of GPS in the background can significantly reduce battery life.

Designed from the ground up for professional and private pilots, it provides for quick and easy entry of loads and checks against type-specific weight, longitudinal CG limits, load station limits etc. Graphical displays, mission and manifest sent by email and much more. Online information, help and discussion at http://groups.google.com/group/ibal-help http://www.airspayce.com/airspayce/ibal Quick Reference Sheet http://www.airspayce.com/iBal/ReferenceSheet.pdf Features: Many types supported: See http://www.airspayce.com/airspayce/ibal/ibal-fixed-types-supported for detailed list of supported types and configurations. Cessna 172 (most models except 172R) landplane, normal category. Cessna 182 (most models) landplane, normal category. Cessna 206 (most models) landplane, normal category. Cessna 208 models with flexible seating: Caravan I in landplane and floatplane, with Wipaire upgross Grand Caravan landplane, with and without APE I, II, II payload extender Caravan EX with TKS deice Piper PA-28 (most models) landplane, normal category. Add any number of your own aircraft, including preconfigured loads and photos of your own aircraft. Send completed CG Solutions (including manifest) and CG graphs to any email address (internet connection required) Configurable Name, BEW, longitudinal arms and photo for your own aircraft (from camera or photo roll where supported). Easy entry and adjustment of passengers, fuel, cargo and suspended loads. Displays CG for loaded and empty fuel, critical fuel loads with and without any suspended load. Detects and displays weight and longitudinal CG problems. Displays available load until limits will be exceeded. Displays weights, arms and CG solutions in graphical and tabular formats, with problem alerts. Support for optional Passenger names and Flight Details which appear on the CG solution spreadsheet and are transmitted when Send tapped. This supports new FAA rules requiring FAR Part 135 (Air Taxi) Operators to manifest every flight stage and for it to be transmitted back to base. Support for Predefined Loads: user definable list of commonly carried loads and their weights. Useful for EMS staff lists, oil rig personnel lists, common cargo items etc. List of predefined loads can be accessed from the load edit page to automatically enter the weight and description. The list can be customised to include any number of your own personnel names or freight descriptions plus the weight of each. Predefined loads can be added or removed from your list at any time, and will not be lost when you update iBal. Loads can be entered in your choice of suitable unit: kg, lbs, USGals, litres,stones (also fuel % in applicable types). Supports iPhone gestures: Drag passengers and cargo between stations Flick cargo and passengers off Zoom and scroll floorplans, graphs and load sheets Aircraft-specific Custom Load Stations, allowing you to add new or non-standard loading positions to your own aircraft. Displays helpful loading data, limits and hints. Optional Alert sounds and vibration for bad solutions for easy in-flight use. Configurable fuel SGs Supports Apple AirPrint, Retina, iOS 5 and later on iPhone, iPad, etc. Works with Aeronet http://www.aeronet.co.nz/ a world class maintenance, flight and duty tracking system. Allows operators to automatically update their Aeronet records with the flight details emailed by iBal. Reduces the time and cost of records compliance.
