New in Land GPS: Measure Better, Export, and Map Toolkit Moves Inलैंड जीपीएस में नया: बेहतर नाप, निर्यात, और मैप टूलकिट अब इसी में

A Tools button on the Map: corner averaging, cut-outs, a circle by radius, a paper-area check, a fence planner at your own rate, export and import, Where am I and the weather. Map Toolkit’s naksha measuring moves into Land GPS, and the apps now update themselves.

In short. Land GPS, AgriZameen’s measuring app, has a new Tools button on the Map. Stand at each corner and let the phone average its readings; take a pond or a building out of the area; draw a circle by radius; compare what you measured with the area on paper; plan a fence at your own rate; export to Google Earth and other apps, and import their files; see where you are, and the weather. Measuring on a naksha photo has moved in from Map Toolkit, and reading land papers has moved to Records Hub. Everything the app measures is indicative — not a survey and not a revenue record. AgriZameen is an independent private platform — not a government body — and Land GPS is not a government app.

संक्षेप में: लैंड जीपीएस के नक्शे पर अब “औज़ार” बटन है — हर कोने पर खड़े होकर औसत नाप, तालाब या मकान को रकबे से घटाना, त्रिज्या से गोला, काग़ज़ के रकबे से मिलान, अपनी दर पर बाड़ की योजना, गूगल अर्थ के लिए निर्यात और आयात, “मैं कहाँ हूँ” और मौसम। मैप टूलकिट का नक्शे की फ़ोटो पर नापना अब लैंड जीपीएस में है और काग़ज़ पढ़ना रिकॉर्ड्स हब में। हर नाप सांकेतिक है — सर्वे या राजस्व रिकॉर्ड नहीं।

Get it: Land GPS on Google Play (listed as “AgriZameen - Land Measure, Map”) · open it in your browser. For the basics of measuring, see our Land GPS guide; Map Toolkit’s original tools are in the Land Toolkit guide. This page describes only what is built, as the apps’ code stood on 25 October 2026.

On the Map: one Tools button

Open the Map and tap the Tools · औज़ार pill at the lower left. Nine tools are inside. A cut-out needs a closed boundary; the fence planner and export need one too, or open from a saved plot in My plots.

Stand at each corner

Walking a boundary traces every wobble of a phone’s GPS. Standing still at each corner gives the phone time. Stand on the first corner and tap Average here. The phone collects up to 20 readings and averages them, giving more weight to the readings it rates as more accurate. Readings worse than the limit you pick — ±5, ±10 or ±15 m — are set aside and counted. While it works, it shows how many readings it has, what the phone says about their accuracy, and how far apart they are. You can save a corner early; with fewer than five readings it asks first. After three or more corners, Finish closes the boundary and names the worst corner’s figure, and each corner’s record is saved with the plot.

What it does not do: averaging reduces the scatter of a phone’s readings. It does not make a phone a survey instrument, and the accuracy it shows is the phone’s own estimate.

Add a cut-out

A pond, a building, a well or a road inside the boundary is not land you can farm. Close a boundary, choose Add a cut-out and tap its corners — three or more, all inside the boundary; a point outside is refused. The app shows the gross area, the cut-outs and the net area under the area bar, saves the cut-outs with the plot, and the plot’s PDF and CSV print the cut-outs and the net area. Editing a saved plot brings its cut-outs back.

Circle by radius

For a well’s command area or a round threshing floor: type a radius in metres or feet, centred where you stand or at the centre of the map. The app shows the circle’s area and the length of its edge. Use as boundary turns it into a 72-sided shape that saves, exports and prints like any plot.

Compare with the paper area

Type the area written on the jamabandi or the deed — in the state’s local unit, acres, hectares, square metres or square feet — or arrive from the Land Converter’s new Open in Land GPS button, which brings the paper area with it. Once a boundary closes, the app sets the measured area against the paper area and shows the difference in square metres and per cent. In the app’s own words, a gap is a reason to ask, not a verdict. The local unit uses the app’s factor for the state shown; check that it is the unit your record uses.

Fence and wall planner

For a closed boundary or a saved plot, it lists every side in metres and feet. Untick a side that needs no fence — an existing wall, a road edge — set the number of gates and their width, and it gives the fence length. A cost appears only when you type your own rate per running foot or metre. AgriZameen never suggests a rate; ask two or three local suppliers. Copy the plan puts the figures on your clipboard.

Export and import

Export a closed boundary, one saved plot, or all saved plots and pins as KML or KMZ (Google Earth, Google My Maps), GPX (GPS handsets and walking apps) or GeoJSON (QGIS and web maps). Cut-outs go into the file as holes, and the file carries a note that the area is app-measured and indicative. Import reads the same four formats from another app, up to 5 MB. You see each boundary with its area before adding it; lines are closed into shapes; points can become pins; and areas are worked out again on your phone rather than taken from the file. Files are made and read on the phone, and nothing is sent to AgriZameen. If you share a file, you choose who sees the location.

Where am I

It shows your GPS position and the phone’s accuracy, then the village, tehsil and district names and the nearest mapped road and village, with straight-line distances. The names come from OpenStreetMap, and the app says so: the revenue record may spell a village differently or draw the line elsewhere. To fetch them, the phone sends your position to lookup services built on OpenStreetMap (Nominatim and the Overpass API); without a connection those rows say so. The khasra row says not shown — AgriZameen has no licence for khasra maps yet — and gives the address of the state’s own map service to copy.

Weather

Today and the next three days: conditions, temperature, rain and wind. The forecast is MET Norway’s (CC BY 4.0), fetched for you by agrizameen.com: your phone sends a position rounded to about a kilometre, and our server keeps that square’s forecast for up to two hours, not linked to you. It is a forecast, not farm advice; for official warnings, the app points to the India Meteorological Department.

On Home and in My plots

Home has a new Land tools row: Where am I, Fence planner, Export · import, and Weather. The fence tile opens your newest saved plot; with none saved, it opens the Map’s tools. In My plots, each plot with a boundary now has Export, Fence and Weather buttons, and the list has Export all and Import a file.

In Land layers: a naksha photo, and the khasra tools

Land layers is on Home and under More. Its Tools menu now has:

Map Toolkit moves in

Map Toolkit is now part of Land GPS. When you open Map Toolkit, a notice sends measuring from a naksha photo to Land GPS and reading land papers to Records Hub, with buttons for Google Play and the web. “Keep using Map Toolkit here until 23 Jan 2027” hides the notice for that session, and its measuring tools work as before. Map Toolkit no longer sends papers anywhere: its Analyze button now points you to Records Hub.

Records Hub — Read your papers. Photograph or choose a jamabandi or nakal, a sale deed or a mutation copy, and the phone reads the words for you to check and correct. The picture never leaves the phone and nothing is sent to AgriZameen; the reading program, about 7 MB, downloads once from a public code library (jsDelivr). A panel explains common labels it finds, without judging the paper. It also has a checklist by deal stage, with the ticks kept on the phone.

Land Converter. Add or subtract areas — for example, the paper area minus the ground area, or two khasras together — with the converter’s own units, and Open in Land GPS, which carries the paper area across to compare with what you walk.

The apps now update themselves

Each AgriZameen app is a page of agrizameen.com inside a Play Store shell. When the website changes, the apps notice: they check when they open, when you come back to them, when the connection comes back, and every 15 minutes while on screen. If nothing is in progress, the app reloads itself. If you are walking a boundary, have drawn one that is not saved yet, are changing a saved plot, are part-way through a corner or a cut-out, or are using the camera, it waits and shows a one-tap Updated · refresh bar. The check is one small request that sends nothing about you. So changes like these reach the apps without a Play Store update.

What leaves your phone

What the numbers are

Everything Land GPS measures is app-measured and indicative. A phone’s GPS, a satellite image or a scanned naksha gives a useful estimate, not a survey. Before you pay, build or fence, check against the jamabandi and the Patwari’s figure, and for a boundary in doubt ask the revenue office for a demarcation — see your khasra on a map, officially.

Questions · अक्सर पूछे सवाल

Does averaging at each corner make Land GPS a survey?

No. Averaging up to 20 readings at a corner, and setting aside readings worse than the limit you pick, reduces the scatter of a phone’s GPS. The accuracy figure shown is the phone’s own estimate. For a boundary that matters, rely on the record and a demarcation by the revenue office.

Can I open a Land GPS plot in Google Earth?

Yes. Export a plot, or all your plots, as KML or KMZ and open the file in Google Earth or Google My Maps. GPX and GeoJSON are there for GPS handsets and GIS apps. The file is made on your phone, and nothing is sent to AgriZameen.

Where did Map Toolkit’s naksha measuring go?

Into Land GPS: open Land layers, then Tools, then Measure on a naksha photo. Reading land papers moved to Records Hub. Map Toolkit shows a notice about the move, and it can still be used there until 23 January 2027.

Does Land GPS show my khasra?

Not yet. Find a khasra, Which khasra am I on? and Make a naksha from khasras are built but say Coming soon until AgriZameen holds a written licence for the Rajasthan khasra map; AgriZameen is applying for one. Meanwhile you can line up your own naksha copy with My naksha.

Does AgriZameen suggest a fencing rate?

No. The fence planner works out lengths from your boundary and shows a total only at a rate you type yourself. Ask local suppliers for their rates.

Do I need to update the app from the Play Store to get these tools?

Not for these changes. The apps check agrizameen.com for a new build and update themselves, and if you are in the middle of something they wait and show a one-tap refresh bar.
