Digital takeoff

Measure landscaping areas, walls, edges, and counts directly from a site plan or drawing.

Digital takeoff

All you need is a reliable scale on the drawing. Drop in the plan, calibrate against a known dimension (a property boundary, a building edge, a stated scale bar), and start measuring. Everything you mark up feeds straight into the matching component.

What you can measure

  • Lawn and turf areas — polygon tool for straight boundaries, curve tool for shaped lawns
  • Patios, paving, decking — polygon for rectangular, irregular polygon for shaped
  • Retaining walls — lineal tool for the run, then set the wall height per section
  • Garden edging and kerbing — lineal or curved line for sweeping borders
  • Driveways and paths — area for rectangular, curved line + width for winding paths
  • Beds and planting zones — irregular area for shaped beds, count for individual plants and trees
  • Excavation and fill — area × depth feeds into a volume component
  • Irrigation runs — multiple lines for mainline and laterals, count for emitters and heads

What happens next

Each measurement is matched to a component and the area, length, volume, or count is filled in for you. The quote builder then applies waste, slope, and pricing automatically.

What gets saved

The marked-up plan, the calibration scale, every measurement with its component link, and the quantities. You can come back later and adjust, add new measurements, or swap a component without re-measuring.
