Land measurement that works where you do.

Tap a boundary on satellite imagery or walk it with GPS. Acrea gives you the area, perimeter and every edge on the spot — then hands it off as a PDF report, a DXF, or a link anyone can open.

How it works

From boundary to deliverable, without leaving the site

Measure, refine and hand off from one app — the same parcel, start to finish.

Step 01

Draw it, or walk it

Tap corners on satellite imagery, or walk the edge and let GPS draw the area as you move. Area, perimeter, every edge and every angle update as you go.

  • Tap to measure

    Free

    Area and distance on satellite, terrain or standard maps.

  • Walk to measure

    Pro

    Records the perimeter from GPS while you walk it.

  • GPS averaging

    Free

    Samples a corner while you stand still, for a steadier point.

  • Your units

    Free

    Acres, hectares, m² or perches; DMS, UTM or MGRS coordinates.

Step 02

Refine it like CAD

Real boundaries aren't straight lines. Drag and insert points, bend edges into arcs, cut out ponds and buildings, and enter traverse legs when you have the numbers.

  • Curves and cut-outs

    Pro

    Arcs for curved edges, holes for what isn't part of the parcel.

  • COGO traverse

    Pro

    Build a boundary from bearings and distances.

  • Exact coordinates

    Pro

    Type or paste the coordinates for any vertex.

  • Split, subdivide, merge

    Pro

    Break a parcel into lots by count or size, or join neighbours.

Step 03

Deliver it anywhere

Hand the work to whoever needs it next, in the format they already use. Every GIS and CAD export is free — getting your data out is never the thing you pay for.

  • Branded PDF reports

    Pro

    Your logo, a site map, coordinates and a legal description.

  • DXF, SHP, KML, GeoJSON, CSV

  • Offline-first sync

    Every save lands on your phone instantly and uploads when there's signal. No spinners, no retries, no errors in the valley.

  • No boundary silently lost

    Changed the same shape on two offline phones? Acrea keeps both and marks one as a conflicted copy.

  • Personal and team workspaces

    Switch with one tap. Your personal workspace stays separate and private.

  • Roles that fit a crew

    Owner, Admin, Can edit and View only. Viewers are free and unlimited, so a client or the office can follow along.

  • Pro covers the team

    A team workspace runs on its owner's Acrea Pro, so the crew doesn't each need a subscription to work in it.

  • Invite with a link

    Lock an invite to one email address or share it openly. Every invite expires.

Honest numbers

Know how good a measurement is before you rely on it

Phone GPS is good, not magic. Acrea shows you exactly what you're working with, so you can decide when a quick check is enough.

  • Live GPS accuracy

    The current accuracy — ±3 m, ±9 m — stays on screen the whole time you measure. No confident number with nothing behind it.

  • GPS averaging

    Stand still on a corner and Acrea samples your position, then uses the mean — steadier than any single fix.

  • Your location stays yours

    GPS is used on your device to place points where you stand. Your location history isn't logged.

A note on accuracy. Acrea uses your device's consumer GPS and mapping data. Results are estimates for planning and reference — they are not a legal survey and should not be used to determine legal property boundaries. Only measure land you own or have permission to survey. See our Terms of Use.

FAQ

Questions from the field

Something else? The documentation covers every tool, or ask @dewwuday.

Does it work without mobile signal?

Yes. GPS doesn't need a data connection, and everything you save is written to your phone first. Map imagery does need a connection — unless you download the area beforehand with Offline maps (Acrea Pro), after which you can view the map, measure and save jobs with no signal at all.

How accurate are the measurements?

Acrea uses your phone's GPS and the map imagery, and shows the live GPS accuracy on screen the whole time, so you always know what you're working with. GPS averaging steadies a point by sampling while you stand still. Results are estimates for planning and reference — they are not a legal survey and shouldn't be used to determine legal property boundaries.

Do I need an account?

No. Acrea works fully without one, and your measurements stay on your device. Optional sign-in with Apple or Google is coming soon: it will sync your work across your devices and let you join a team.

Can I get my measurements into CAD or GIS?

Yes, and it's free. Export one measurement or all of them to DXF, Shapefile, KML, KMZ, GeoJSON or CSV, and import the same formats. Branded PDF reports and legal descriptions are part of Acrea Pro.

Can I show a boundary to someone who doesn't have the app?

Today, send a map image or a PDF report. Share links are coming soon: a link opens in any browser as an interactive satellite map framed on the parcel, with its area, perimeter and notes — no app and no account needed. Links are public to anyone you send them to, so don't share a boundary you need kept confidential. Links you create while signed in can be stopped any time in Settings → Data → Shared links.

Is my location tracked?

No. Location is used to measure, not to track: GPS is used on your device to place points where you stand, and your location history isn't logged. The Privacy Policy has the details.

What happens to my data if I sign in?

Sign-in and cloud sync are coming soon. With cloud sync on, your measurements, places, categories and groups will be stored in your account, so they're on every phone you sign in on — and you can turn sync off for a phone at any time. Work saved in a team is visible to its members, and share links are public to anyone who has them. The Privacy Policy has the details.

Is it on iPhone and Android?

Both, with the same features on each. It's available in 11 languages.
