Field notes
The interface separates measurement work into tools such as calibration, length, area, count, volume, and scan, with layers and custom columns also shown. The page describes scale presets and per-page scales, and says markups are saved as standard PDF annotations. It also presents revision comparison both as an overlay and, according to the site, as a batch operation through the CLI.
