What it does
Map Developers provides map-based area, distance, elevation, circle, coordinate and location lookup tools.
Map Developers groups free area, radius, distance and location tools separately from custom mapping services and its Maptive partner trial. The area tool finds a place by address or latitude,longitude, then adds boundary points with live area and perimeter output. New/Edit/Remove controls revise the active shape, and a return link preserves a way back to that map. The page calls its area approximate. For roofs, it warns that image angle and slope can distort measurements: outline points at one elevation, handle multiple levels separately and relate footprint to roof angle. The site also offers embedding, while explicitly identifying itself as independent of Google Maps.
