KNOWLEDGE BASE / MEASUREMENTS

Add a measurement to a photo

Use a measurement annotation when it adds useful scale or dimensional context to the photo.

Before you begin

Confirm that the measurement tool available in your version of Conota is suitable for the job.

Frame the object clearly and avoid strong perspective distortion where possible.

Add the measurement

  • Open the measurement or annotation tool available in your app version.
  • Place the measurement points on the relevant edges or reference points.
  • Select the required unit where supported.
  • Review the result before saving or sharing the documented image.

Do not overstate precision

The number shown is only as reliable as the measurement method, calibration, camera geometry and reference information used.

Tip: test any new setup with one photo before using it across a live project.
