I forget who it was or where it was but whoever introduced Google Planimeter to me on here is an absolute lifesaver!
Acme Planimeter
I've been able to directly cross-reference physically measured jobs (I'm talking large car parks etc) and have found it to be incredibly accurate, in some cases it has saved me a 80 mile drive to measure an industrial estate (that I had previously measured for patching works, then they wanted an complete overlay pricing)
It is also useful to send to clients indicating the area measured using a simple screen grab and process the image in Photoshop or similar.
So, whoever it was, many thanks!
