Powerful in-app tools for construction projects
Utilize the Moasure app's powerful suite of tools and features to enhance your construction measurements.
Cut & Fill tool
Calculate the volume of material needed to either excavate (cut) or add (fill) to bring a site to the desired level. Set your preferred level and instantly see the volume required for adjustments. The “zero net volume” feature shows the exact level needed to avoid any material movement, making it useful for leveling sites.
Add Depth tool
Designed for estimating material volumes based on specific depths, this tool calculates how much material (like asphalt, concrete, or aggregate) is needed to cover a given area at a set depth. It’s effective for both flat and sloped sites, helping you avoid overestimating material costs and ensuring precise coverage.
Point to Point
Measure the rise, run and gradient between two points with the Point-to-Point measurement type. This is ideal for checking elevation between areas to check drainage on roads or other paved areas. Also great for checking basic distances between 2 points when, for example, working out curbs material orders.
Surface Mesh view
This view generates a 3D surface map based on the measured area’s shape and elevation data, offering an accurate representation of irregular terrain. It’s particularly useful for applications where terrain and elevation variations impact planning, such as excavation and earthworks.
Topography / Contour view
The contour view provides a 3D visualization of the site’s topography. By capturing elevation points across the terrain, Moasure creates contour lines that show gradients and elevations. This helps you understand site slopes and visualize the entire area, aiding in planning and material requirements.
View in 3D
Moasure captures the elevation of every point and generates a model of your measurement in 3D space. Moasure instantly and automatically draws your construction site for you in real time, allowing you to make decisions without having to send your measurements back to the office for analysis first.
Organize your files
Save your Moasure files and organize them into folders, all within the app. Ideal for easy reference, simply access your measurements anytime you need them – Moasure’s organized file system streamlines your workflow and ensures quick access to your work.
Add labels & backgrounds
Label points of interest and overlay your measurement on an aerial shot of the area to help clients or colleagues visualize your project. Label drains, low points, or other obstacles as you measure, or update a point after you've completed your measurement.

This device saved me countless hours in the first week of using it
"I ordered this to measure driveways and other hard to measure areas for asphalt paving. The old way of a measuring wheel and manually calculating the areas is inefficient. This device saved me countless hours in the first week of using it."

It takes much less time to get a more accurate estimate compared to using a measuring wheel
"This was purchased for estimating new asphalt driveways. For new construction homes that don't yet appear on Google Maps this is a game changer. It takes much less time to get a more accurate estimate compared to using a measuring wheel. Plus now we can accurately measure slope to determine drainage."

We will be replacing all other forms of measuring with the Moasure device
"We tried a wheel that connected to a smart device and while it gave accurate measurements it had limitations for when we could use it. The moasure is well thought out in how it can be used and how it processes the information. We will be replacing all other forms of measuring with the Moasure device."

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about Moasure for construction.
Moasure provides precise cross-section measurements, cut & fill calculations, and elevation mapping, reducing reliance on manual grading tools and survey crews.
Yes, Moasure is ideal for measuring curved, irregular, and non-linear structures commonly found in civil construction projects. Whether it's roadway curves, drainage channels, custom concrete layouts, or retaining walls, Moasure’s advanced measurement capabilities allow contractors to trace and capture complex forms with precision, ensuring accurate planning and execution.
Unlike other tools on the market, Moasure is designed to operate in rugged environments. Its water-resistant (IP67) design ensures rain is no issue and it can also be dropped from 6ft onto concrete. With durability like this, it remains accurate even when measuring across mud, rocks, or uneven ground.
Moasure helps at every stage, from pre-construction planning (calculating surface area and material take-offs) to site preparation (grading and drainage verification) and final checks (ensuring proper thickness and slope compliance). This reduces material waste, improves accuracy, and prevents rework.
Yes, Moasure is designed to measure large, complex job sites, including roads, parking lots, and excavation sites, making it ideal for civil construction projects. We have customers measuring miles of road in one measurement.
There's no fixed limit to the distance you can measure with Moasure. Instead, there's a limit determined by the available memory on your smartphone or tablet.
As this varies across phones and tablets, we quote a 'safe' maximum distance of 1,000ft and a maximum area of 100,000 sq. ft. to remain well within the memory limit of most smartphones.
For measurements larger than this, we recommend breaking up the measurement into a series of smaller measurements.
Some customers have measured distances of 2,500ft and areas of more than 269,000 sq. ft. in one measurement.
