Designed specifically for field professionals required to draw an accurate sketch and calculate area square footage and perimeter values, AreaSketch stands alone when compared to existing sketch solutions. FreeForm Technology™ allows users to draw any sketch. As data is being gathered, new areas can be created on the fly without having to finish the first area.

 Line dimensions can be edited at any time with point & click simplicity.Calculator functions are included to allow the addition or subtraction of any value from an existing line to properly close the area. Its advanced technology automates everything including Auto-Center and Auto-Scaling. The sketch is always centered and scaled perfectly. Line dimensions can be flipped inside, outside, or turned off completely for each individual line or the entire area.
Area names and types can be customized for every situation including the area multiplier and modifier capability. The area multiplier will multiply the base area square footage by any factor. The modifier function allows areas to subtotal to a specific area type but also add or subtract from another area. Duplicate area names can be used on the same sketch. The 3 Phase Close function guarantees a perfect close every time. AreaSketch always displays the exact horizontal and vertical distance required to close, or finish any area. Clicking on the displayed distance will automatically draw that line.
AreaSketch and all of its powerful features are designed to work on your PC, Tablet PC, and your Pocket PC. Best of all, your professional looking sketch will seamlessly integrate with ClickFORMS. For additional information please call Bradford Technologies, Inc. 800-622-8727.
