Now there are many free online area calculation tools available for free area calculation which uses satellite maps to locate and mark land/structure boundaries and using lat long coordinates of boundary points to calculate area. Are they accurate or how much are they accurate?
( Some readers queried about the tool used for this study. Satellite Map Land Area Calculator used in this study can be found at http://milloz.com/site/index.php?q=Free-Tools/Area-Measurement-Tool )

Satellite Maps Land/Structure Area Calculator Tools Useful/Accurate?
1. Here we will verify the accuracy of the Geographical/land/plot/region Area calcultor tool, usage ofwhich is
explained in this post. We will startwith a small area and then go to the more spacious structures for area
measurement
Let us start with Washington monument in Washington,ithas a 17*17 sq meter base,so the area is 289 square
meter,when measured with our tool, the area obtained is 291 square meters,we can say that its a reasonable result
considering the time spentfor measurement(less than a minute).Continue reading,you can see that the pyramid of
Giza area is correctly calculated by this tool. At the end of reading,please spare some time and commenton your
views about this tool
