Survey & Planning


Do you need to get positions from a map or plan? Or to calculate the area of a building plot from a plan or aerial photograph? With XYit you can.

XYit can save hours of time pouring over plans and diagrams with a ruler and dividers, yet gets much more accurate information. You can then transfer the positions of features onto the clipboard, for analysis in a spreadsheets (Excel) or transfer to a word processor.

  • Converts maps on web page, scanned image, or application screen
  • Analysis gives perimeter & area. e.g. of fields & building plots
  • Automatic line following tool
  • On-screen magnifier.
  • XY Linear for architect plans and grid maps
  • X linear Y Mercator for nautical charts
  • Surplus point removal button - thinning / generalization

Applications in surveying, cartography, architecture, mapping & hydrography.
