My GPS Tape Measure

GPS Tape Measure calculates distances from point A to point B. It will not measure your whole trip but only straight line. It means that you can find out how far are your favourites places in bird's eye view. Without doubts, you will understand how does this app work, because everything what you have to do is just click.

Application works better, if you are outdoor. It's nearly impossible to measure for example how long is your arm! Also, accuracy might seem to be broken down but inaccuracy about 5 meters is very common.

Units included:
- meters
- kilometers
- miles
- nautical miles

You can also changed coordinates format during runtime.

Features:

Share your position and distance using email, message or social networking sites or by simply mail.

Tape measures that were intended for use in tailoring or dressmaking were made from flexible cloth or plastic. They are named "sewing tape". These types of tape measures were mainly used for the measuring of the human's waist line. Today, measuring tapes made for sewing are made of fiberglass, which does not tear or stretch as easily. Measuring tapes designed for carpentry or construction often use a stiff, curved metallic ribbon that can remain stiff and straight when extended, but retracts into a coil for convenient storage. This type of tape measure will have a floating tang or hook on the end to aid measuring. The tang is connected to the tape with loose rivets through oval holes, and can move a distance equal to its thickness, to provide both inside and outside measurements that are accurate.[1] A tape measure of 25 or even 100 feet can wind into a relatively small container. The self-marking tape measure allows the user an accurate one hand measure.

Justus Roe, a surveyor and tape-maker by trade, made the longest tape measure in 1956, at 600 feet (183 m).[8]

The Northern Virginia Surveyors Association presented the 600-foot, gold-plated surveyor's tape measure to Mickey Mantle in 1956.[9]

Some tapes sold in the United States have additional marks in the shape of small black diamonds, which appear every 19.2 inches (488 mm). These are used to mark out equal spacing for joists (five joists or trusses per standard 8-foot (2,438 mm) length of building material).

Many tapes also have special markings every 16 inches (406 mm), which is a standard interval for studs in construction. Three spaces of 16 inches make exactly 4 feet (1,219 mm) which is the commercial width of a sheet of plywood, gyprock or particle board.
