How to measure your garden on a map

From a new lawn to a planting bed, start with the space you actually have. This free garden area calculator turns an outline on a satellite map into an area and perimeter for your landscaping plans.

  2. 02

    Draw the space

    Choose Add area, mark the corners and finish the outline. Add separate zones for different jobs, then exclude any space you do not need to cover.

  3. 03

    Put the size to work

    Read your garden size in m² or ft². Select a measured zone or the total, then use its area to calculate materials, compare lawn options or build a project brief.
