Moasure makes it easy to measure pools. In this guide, you will get some tips on how to go about measuring pools.

Voorbeeld 1: Measuring Straight-Edged Pools (Including Arc Corners)

This method is ideal for pools with straight sides, such as rectangular pools or those with curved Roman or Grecian-style corners. The process involves a combination of straight lines and arc measurements.

Step-by-Step Overview

1. Select Closed Shape Measurement Type In the Moasure app, tap the + icon and choose Closed Shape Measurement to begin.
2. Power on the Device To turn the device on, raise the Moasure device vertically and gently rotate it 180° back and forth until the LED flashes blue and then red.
3. Start from a Clear Reference Point Place the device at a defined point on the pool edge, aligning the reference point carefully for consistent results.
4. Straight Line Path Begin by walking along straight edges of the pool using the Straight Line path.

   • Walk at a steady pace.

   • Pause halfway along long edges to split the line into shorter, more accurate segments.

5. Measure Arc Corners When approaching curved corners, switch to the Arc path type.

   • Place the device at three points: the start, middle, and end of the curve.

   • Moasure will automatically generate a best-fit arc.

6. Bypass Obstacles Use the Straight Line path to walk around handrails or other features while maintaining accurate perimeter calculations. This path type measures the straight-line distance between two points, regardless of the route you take - meaning you don’t need a clear line of sight. You can walk around obstacles and Moasure will still record a clean, linear measurement from point A to point B.

7. Complete the Measurement Finish at your original starting point and tap the red stop icon to close the shape.

   • The app will instantly display perimeter and area values.

   • A start/finish error of 1% or lower is considered an accurate measurement.

Voorbeeld 2: Measuring Curved, Circular & Irregular-Shaped Pools

This method is best for pools with kidney shapes, circular designs, or those with varying edge contours. Moasure’s flexible path types allow you to accurately follow curves and navigate around obstacles.

Step-by-Step Overview

1. Plan Before You Begin Take a moment to review the pool’s shape, identify obstacles, and decide which path types will be required.

2. Start with Arc or Trace Line

   • Use Arc path when measuring defined curves or when obstacles (like handrails) prevent a direct trace.

   • Use Trace Line to follow continuous or irregular curved edges, pausing every 6–8 seconds.

3. Navigate Obstacles with Path Switching

   • Use Straight Line to walk round obstacles while still recording linear distance.

4. Maintain Good Technique

   • Walk quickly and avoid sudden or jerky movements.

   • Pause when the timer bar is in the green zone for best results.

   • Aim to pause at logical points such as direction changes or natural breaks in the pool shape.

5. Close and Save the Measurement

   • Return to your starting point and tap the red stop icon to finish.

   • The app will calculate area and perimeter automatically.
