Did you know ArcGIS Earth’s measurement tools allow you to measure everything from points and lines to complex polygons—in both 2D and 3D environments? Whether it’s measuring the length of a road, the area of a park, or the height of a building, ArcGIS Earth has you covered.
🛠️ Key Measurement Options in ArcGIS Earth:
1️⃣ Point-to-Point Measurement: 📍 Measure straight-line distances between two specific points—perfect for route planning or quick estimations.
2️⃣ Path & Multi-Segment Distance: 🛤️ Draw multi-segment lines to measure complex paths with accurate total distances and segment-by-segment breakdowns.
3️⃣ Area Measurement: 🛑⭕ Draw polygons to calculate surface area for zoning, land-use planning, and site assessments, or create circles with defined radii for buffer zones and proximity analysis.
4️⃣ 3D Object Measurement: 🏢 Take advantage of 3D measurements to analyze building heights, distances between structures, or surface dimensions.
🚀 Pro Tips:
1️⃣ Right-Click to Adjust: Right-click to delete the last vertex during measurement.
2️⃣ Segment Insights: ArcGIS Earth displays distance along each segment directly on the scene for granular clarity.
