ESM: import Measurement from "@arcgis/core/widgets/Measurement.js";
CDN: const Measurement = await $arcgis.import("@arcgis/core/widgets/Measurement.js");
Class: @arcgis/core/widgets/Measurement
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.13
The Measurement widget groups and manages multiple measurement tools and allows you to easily switch between them using the activeTool property. The tools correspond to the measurement widgets for area and distance in 2D (AreaMeasurement2D, DistanceMeasurement2D) and in 3D (AreaMeasurement3D, DirectLineMeasurement3D).
This widget follows a composite pattern that allows developers to configure the UI to best match their specific requirements. The measurement tools, placements, and icons can all be configured, which offers great flexibility to use with tabbed interfaces or other customized UI. See the Measurement widget sample for an example of this flexibility.
How distances, areas, and perimeters are computed depends on the view type and its spatial reference.
In 2D MapViews:
In 3D SceneViews:
Example
// Add the measurement widget to the upper right hand corner
// with the distance tool active
const map = new Map({
basemap: "hybrid"
});
const view = new MapView({
container: "viewDiv",
map: map,
center: [-71.69, 43.76],
zoom: 15
});
const measurement = new Measurement({
view: view,
activeTool: "distance"
});
view.ui.add(measurement, "top-right");
// Switch between area and distance measurement
function switchTool() {
const tool = measurement.activeTool === "distance" ? "area" : "distance";
measurement.activeTool = tool;
}

Property DetailsSpecifies the current measurement tool to display. Setting its value to area
activates the area measurement tool and it works for both MapView and SceneView. To measure distance in a MapView set the property to distance
and in a SceneView set it to direct-line
. If this property is not set, the widget will not be displayed.
Possible Values:"area" |"distance" |"direct-line"
Example
// To create the Measurement widget with SceneView's direct-line tool active.
const measurement = new Measurement({
view: view,
activeTool: "direct-line"
});
// To switch between direct line and area measurement tools
function switchTool() {
const tool = measurement.activeTool === "direct-line" ? "area" : "direct-line";
measurement.activeTool = tool;
}
The measurement widget that is currently being used. Use this property to get access to the active widget.
Example
// Print the active widget to the console.
const measurement = new Measurement({
view: view,
activeTool: "distance"
});
view.ui.add(measurement, "top-right");
console.log("Active Widget: ", measurement.activeWidget);
Unit system (imperial, metric) or specific unit used for displaying the area values. Possible values are: metric
, imperial
, square-inches
, square-feet
, square-us-feet
, square-yards
, square-miles
, square-nautical-miles
, square-meters
, square-kilometers
, acres
, ares
, hectares
.
Example
// To create the Measurement widget that displays area in square US feet
const measurement = new Measurement({
view: view,
activeTool: "area",
areaUnit: "square-us-feet"
});
// To display the current area measurement unit
console.log("Current unit: ", measurement.areaUnit);
The ID or node representing the DOM element containing the widget. This property can only be set once. The following examples are all valid use case when working with widgets.
Examples
// Create the HTML div element programmatically at runtime and set to the widget's container
const basemapGallery = new BasemapGallery({
view: view,
container: document.createElement("div")
});
// Add the widget to the top-right corner of the view
view.ui.add(basemapGallery, {
position: "top-right"
});
// Specify an already-defined HTML div element in the widget's container
const basemapGallery = new BasemapGallery({
view: view,
container: basemapGalleryDiv
});
// Add the widget to the top-right corner of the view
view.ui.add(basemapGallery, {
position: "top-right"
});
// HTML markup
<body>
<div id="viewDiv"></div>
<div id="basemapGalleryDiv"></div>
</body>
// Specify the widget while adding to the view's UI
const basemapGallery = new BasemapGallery({
view: view
});
// Add the widget to the top-right corner of the view
view.ui.add(basemapGallery, {
position: "top-right"
});
Inherited
Property declaredClass Stringreadonly
The name of the class. The declared class name is formatted as esri.folder.className
.
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.27 Measurement since 4.13, icon added at 4.27.
Icon which represents the widget. It is typically used when the widget is controlled by another one (e.g. in the Expand widget).
Inherited
Property id String
The unique ID assigned to the widget when the widget is created. If not set by the developer, it will default to the container ID, or if that is not present then it will be automatically generated.
The widget's default label. This property is useful whenever the widget is controlled by another one (e.g. Expand).
Unit system (imperial, metric) or specific unit used for displaying the distance values. Possible values are: metric
, imperial
, inches
, feet
, us-feet
, yards
, miles
, nautical-miles
, meters
, kilometers
.
Example
// To create the Measurement widget that displays distance in yards
const measurement = new Measurement({
view: view,
activeTool: "distance",
linearUnit: "yards"
});
// To display the current linear measurement unit
console.log('Current linear unit: ', measurement.linearUnit);
A reference to the MapView or SceneView. Set this to link the widget to a specific view.
Example
// To create the Measurement widget for SceneView with the direct-line tool active.
const measurement = new Measurement({
view: sceneView,
activeTool: "direct-line"
});
The view model for this widget. This is a class that contains all the logic (properties and methods) that controls this widget's behavior. See the MeasurementViewModel class to access all properties and methods on the widget.
Example
// Initialize a measurement widget using the view model.
const measurement = new Measurement({
viewModel: {
view: view,
activeTool: "distance",
unit: "yards"
}
});
Inherited
Property visible Boolean
Indicates whether the widget is visible.
If false
, the widget will no longer be rendered in the web document. This may affect the layout of other elements or widgets in the document. For example, if this widget is the first of three widgets associated to the upper right hand corner of the view UI, then the other widgets will reposition when this widget is made invisible. For more information, refer to the css display value of "none"
.
Example
// Hides the widget in the view
widget.visible = false;

Method DetailsInherited
Method addHandles(handleOrHandles, groupKey)
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.25 Accessor since 4.0, addHandles added at 4.25.

this.destroy();
Parameters
Handles marked for removal once the object is destroyed.
