Map Measurement Workspace (IQ)

When to use it

Use map measurement when you cannot measure on site, or when you want a fast aerial measurement to get a quote out quickly.

Open the workspace

1. In Dashboard -> Assistant, ask to measure on the map.
2. IQ will open a map measurement workspace for the project.

Example prompts:

• "Open the map so I can draw the driveway."
• "Let me measure this on the map."
• "Measure the asphalt area for this project."

Draw the area

• The map opens in polygon draw mode.
• Click around the perimeter of the asphalt area to add points.
• Finish the shape by clicking the first point to close the polygon.
• Use the trash icon to delete a polygon.
• You can draw more than one polygon if needed.

As you draw, SurfaceIQ shows:

• Total area (sqft)
• Perimeter (ft)

Save the measurement

1. Click Save.
2. You should see a "Measurement saved" message.

If you edit the shape after saving, click Save again to save the updated measurement.

Continue the estimate in IQ

1. Click Use for estimate.
2. You will return to IQ and it will use the latest saved measurement for the project.

Troubleshooting

• Save button is disabled: draw at least one polygon first.
• The map will not load: your SurfaceIQ admin needs to configure map access.
• The map does not center on the job: make sure the project has a complete site address.
