Measure distances
The Measure Distances feature provides you with tools to measure distances and areas directly on the map.
How to measure distances
Choose a measurement type
Choose which measurement type to use:
Line - measures length of all lines drawn
Polygon - measures perimeter and area of shape drawn
Circle - measures radius, area, and perimeter of the circle drawn
Driving distance - measures length of roads where vehicles can travel according to lines drawn
Cycling distance - measures length of roads where bikes can travel according to lines drawn
Walking distance - measures length of roads where pedestrians can travel according to lines drawn
Draw measurement area
Click on the map to draw the measurement area.
For polygon, click points on the map to draw boundaries - ending with the first point to close the shape.

For circle, click once to generate an initial circle, then move your mouse to make the radius bigger or smaller. When you're happy with the size, click anywhere on the map.

How do I undo a measurement?
To undo a measurement, click the Trash Can in the top right-hand corner of the pop-up window.
