Turn Metes and Bounds data into a plot map. Metes and Bounds calculates square feet and acreage.

Angles can be given down to minutes and seconds. Can auto-close a plot drawing if the final plot segment is missing.

Here are some key features of "Metes and Bounds":

Perform calculations:
· Square Feet, Acres, Hectares, perimeter distance and more.

Easy to use data entry form:
· Enter lines, curves and section calls.

Layers:
· Layers allow you to have multiple deeds on a single drawing. Layers can be free floating or locked to a common starting point.

Metes and Bounds will calculate if the survey closes or not:
· Calculate closure errors: closing error ratios and the call needed to close the plot.

Auto-Completion of drawing:
· If you're missing the final segment of your land plotting data, let our Metes and Bounds land plotting software finish it for you. Have a bad or missing call? Enter a question mark (?) for the call and let the software find the missing call for you.

Multiple measurement types:
· Data can be entered using feet, meters, rods, chains, varas and many other measurement types.

Easy to use measuring tool:
· Estimate the distance between any two points on the screen.

Automatic labeling:
· Each line can be automatically labeled with the length and call. End points can be marked for easier recognition. End points can also be labeled with information like the interior/exterior angles and Lat/Long coordinates.

Create custom labels and backgrounds:
Custom labels can be rotated in any direction. Drawings can include a call list:
· Metes and Bounds Call List

Background Pictures:
· Background pictures can be set to scale with your plot drawing. Background picture scale settings can be automatically set using World Files.

Custom X,Y points:
· Use custom X,Y points to mark and label unique land features on the metes and bounds drawing.

Split a single plot into multiple plots:
· Split the plot by hand, or choose a starting point and let the Metes and Bounds software find the nearest halves automatically for you.

Limitations:

· Watermark on the created map.
· Plots are limited to one demo curve in the non-pro versions.
