Moasure is a powerful tool for measuring golf courses, including fairways, greens, pathways, and bunkers. Using motion-based technology, it captures accurate distances, elevations, and volumes, making complex measurements simple and efficient. This guide outlines the key steps for measuring a golf course effectively.

Getting Started

  • Choose an accessible starting point and mark it as Point A, with Point B at a sufficient distance for accuracy.

  • Use markers (e.g., golf balls, flags) to easily identify the points.

Capturing Perimeter Measurements

  1. Starting the Measurement:

    • Begin at Point A and walk briskly to Point B.

    • Maintain a consistent pace and ensure the stick glides smoothly through the air without swinging or abrupt movements before placing it down quickly but gently.

  2. Navigating Terrain:

    • Walk smoothly around corners.

    • Keep the device still on uneven ground to capture a pause point.

  3. Completing the Perimeter:

    • Continue measuring until the entire boundary is recorded.

    • Tap the red Stop icon to save.

Adding Layers for Accuracy

  • Layers can include additional course elements like bunkers, greens, or pathways.

  • Save progress after each layer to prevent data loss.

Measuring Specific Features

  • Winding Pathways: Walk consistently, pausing every 6-8 seconds to capture accurate elevation data.

Viewing & Adjusting Data

  • Tap any point to see the X, Y and Z values and any selected edge to view the length, rise, and run data.

Enhancing Measurements

    • Tap Edit > Edit Background > Add Image to overlay an aerial view.

    • Adjust size, rotation, and opacity as needed.

    • Select a point, tap Edit > Edit Label, and name it for easy reference.

Cut & Fill Calculations

  • Adjust the depth slider to calculate precise cut, fill, and net values.

Exporting Data

  • Share data easily via email or with Moasure app users.

Conclusion

Using Moasure, capturing accurate measurements of complex shapes like golf course bunkers, greens, and winding pathways becomes seamless and efficient, saving time while providing reliable data for your projects.

Set Moasure to your preferred unit (metric or imperial) in the app .

Each new starts at Point A and follows the same measurement principles.

Bunkers & Volume Measurements: Use the Trace Line to capture the perimeter. To measure volume, use the type and follow a zig-zag for rectangular shapes or a spiral pattern for oval shapes.

Use the to visualise elevation changes.
