I need an ipad 2 app that will plot dimensions during a site visit. App builders?

Hi there,
I am a landscape gardener based in the (metric) UK and I am trying to find an app that will help me when I visit a new customer to plot the garden on a page that I can print or share later.
This is my idea of the app I am looking for.
I want a page of grid paper on which I can set points as the outline of the garden.
This is std grid paper, the type with the large squares in heavy ink and the internal divisions in lighter ink.
I would like to be able to set the dimensions of the grid to 1 metre squares and the internal divisions to 100 mm.
I would like to, for example in a square garden, set 4 corner points and know the area of this square.
I would like to, be able to trace features within the garden into the square. These are things like flower beds, lawns, paths, trees etc.
I would like to, know the areas of these features within the garden.
I would like to, be able to see the measurements between objects and along the lines of features in the garden, and areas of each feature including total area.
I would like to, be able to add notes to annotate specific features or areas or thoughts.
Now that is the basic drawing of a garden that you visit app.
We move on to the advanced (paid) version here.
I would like to, be able to include changes in elevation. I dont need 3D capability, but I do need to include details of slopes, terraces, sheds etc. I can measure horizontal distance and drop and would like some way of including these measurements into the new plotted garden.
Essentially, I would like an app that can easily plot the area, size and elevation of a garden I visit so that when I get home I can recreate the garden in Sketchup.
I have tried searching for this app to no avail, there are design apps but they appear to be interior based. Design your room, visualise your project etc.
So, the big question is, do you know of an app like this? Or do you fancy building one?
I imagine there is a market for this app given the amount of search results I have, while searching for my perfect app,  from forums detailing others search for the same app.
So I challenge you to suggest the perfect existing app, or, build one.
Should you wish to build one, and would like a consultant, let me know in this thread and we can exchange emails. My rates are very reasonable.
Looking forward to a solution to my problem.
Bo

This is an iPad user to user forum. Apple doesn't read or respond. Not sure if any app developers visit this forum.
Suggest you repost in the Developer's Forum at https://discussions.apple.com/community/developer_forums

  • I need to create a schedule that will be performed every day

    Hi,
    I need to create a schedule that will be performed every day. Must start at a specified time and finish their work at a certain time. Joby hooked to this schedule must do their work in a loop, until he completed the work to the procedure. Do you have any solution?

    Easy, use DBMS_SCHEDULER to schedule the job to start at a particular time every day.
    [...] and finish their work at a certain time. [...]
    What should it do if it finishes early? What should it do if it hasn't finished its work by the given time? There may be things you can do to make it crash out at a given time - but its helpful to know what your aims are first.

    I don't have a clue what that last sentence means, let alone a solution.

  • Need to create a function that will act like the save as browser function

    I need to create a button on a web page that will open up a save dialog box and then save the current web page as an .html file on the persons hard drive. The reason for this is because the window is a pop up that does not have the browser menu or any toolbars showing just the what we call print view. This window was used only as a print view so people can print the form out but now the powers that be want a save button as well so the people can save it to there HD. I can do this in IE using javascript but no other browser allows that so I need to create something in java. I have read about the setHeader() to download the file but I am sort of new and from what I've read it all sounds like you will be downloading a specific file and not the web page as a file. Anyone have any ideas as to how I can accomplish this? It doesn't have to be the save as dialog box just a way the person can get the current web page on their HD for viewing offline and done at the press of a button. Thanks.

    You'll be wanting to output a PDF or the like instead of a web page. That's the solution to your problem.
    Please next time consider using a line break or two when you post. Thank you for your consideration.

  • Need help with WMI code that will send output to db

    'm new to WMI code writing, so I need some help with writing code that we can store on our server. I want this code to run when a user logs into their computer
    and talks to our server. I also want the code to:
    * check the users computer and find all installed patches
    * the date the patches were installed
    * the serial number of the users computer
    * the computer name, os version, last boot up time, and mac address
    and then have all this output to a database file. At the command prompt I've tried:
    wmic qfe get description, hotfixid
    This does return the patch information I'm looking for, but how do I combine that line of code with:
    wmic os get version, csname, serialnumber, lastbootuptime
    and
    wmic nicconfig get macaddress
    and then get all this to output to a database file?

    Thank you for the links. I checked out http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/scriptcenter/dd793612.aspx and
    found lots of good information. I also found a good command that will print information to a text file.
    Basically what I'm trying to do is retrieve a list of all installed updates (Windows updates and 3rd party updates). I do like that the below code because it gives me the KB numbers for the Windows updates. I need this information so my IT co-workers &
    I can keep track of which of our user computers need a patch/update installed and preferably which patch/update. The minimum we want to know is which patches / updates have been installed on which computer. If you wondering why we don't have Windows automatic
    updates enable, that's because we are not allowed to.   
    This is my code so far. 
    #if you want the computer name, use this command
    get-content env:computername
    $computer = get-content env:computername
    #list of installed patches
    Get-Hotfix -ComputerName $computer#create a text file listing this information
    Get-Hotfix > 'C:\users\little e\Documents\WMI help\PowerShell\printOutPatchList.txt'
    I know you don't want to tell me the code that will print this out to a database (regardless if it's Access or SQL), and that's find. But maybe you can tell me this. Is it possible to have the results of this sent to a database file or do I need to go into
    SQL and write code for SQL to go out and grab the data from an Excel file or txt file? If I'm understanding this stuff so far, then I suspect that it can be done both ways, but the code needs to be written correctly for this to happen. If it's true, then which
    way is best (code in PowerShell to send information to SQL or SQL go get the information from the text file or Excel file)?

  • Need advice re: Lightscribe drive that will work in Mac Pro

    I have the stock superdrive in my Mac Pro upper slot. I had a three year old LaCie 16x Lightscribe Drive that I took from my G5 and installed it in the lower slot. I could not get the MacPro to recognize it. I triple checked the cable connects, tried Cable Select and Slave jumper settings, installed the latest LaCie system extensions for the drive, but it still will not recognize it. It does not show up in Disk Utility or anywhere else.
    So.... I bought the Lite-On DH-20A4H08C drive from Amazon. Put it in (Cable Select) mode, and the Mac Pro recognized it right away. The problem is that the tray in the Lite-On drive sits too low in the chassis, and when ejecting, it catches on the drive door of the Mac Pro - sometimes it can get out all the way under it's own power, sometimes I have to pull it out. It retracts pretty much OK. I'm not into the stress that this misaligned drive is putting on components, so I plan to return it.
    Can anyone recommend an IDE Lightscribe Drive that will work in the Mac Pro and where the tray will eject nicely through the seemingly slimmed drive doors on the Mac Pro? If not IDE, can I use a SATA Lightscribe Drive? I understand there are two SATA ports on the motherboard beneath the back of the optical drive enclosure.
    Looking for some positive experiences here please?
    thx -b

    Well, I found the fix! I ditched the Lite-On and continued fiddling with my better fitting LaCie drive and I found that the LaCie drive has to be in the upper bay (i.e. first in the chain) for it to work. The SuperDrive had to be moved to the lower bay (last on the chain). I have no idea why this is, but swapping positions causes the LaCie drive to be invisible to the Mac Pro. Of course, both drives are set to Cable Select. Even LaCie tech support (which was very responsive BTW) were scratching their heads.

  • In FCX I need to burn a DVD that will be either a Region 0 or Region 2 per a festival requirement- what Region does FCX default burn to?

    Hello!  I need to burn DVDs from FCX that are going to London - they are asking that they be Region 0 or Region 2 - what is the default Region that FCX burns to so that I know I am burning it to the correct region?  I need it to play when it gets there - this is a film festival submission - Thanks! 

    Region coding is largely a dead concept.  Most better DVD players will play any region.

  • I need a list of printers that will work with Mac 9.1.

    The 2 printers I have bought for my iMac 9.1 have permanently crashed and I need to see a list of under $150 printers that are compatible. I want something like the discontinued hp 4215. I was oblivious to this problem and purchased a hp 4315 that won't work and the store where I got the product was of no help in finding me something that is compatible. I appreciate all suggestions, but both my Brother MFC-3220c and an HP $49 printer broke on me. I hear Epson might work better for me. Thanks for your help!!
    iMac OS 9.1   Mac OS 9.1.x  

    Hey Jeff: Thanks for the info. I will check on eBay and see what I find. I have been looking for over a month and had no idea that the 9.1 was so extinct! I am currently looking for a job and you really need a printer for resumes, cover letters,etc...and I am tired of trecking off to the library. Thanks again. Ray

  • If i use 12W charger to charge my ipad mini, is that will cause battery failure after charging?

    this is because the original 5w charger is damm rubbish, everytime charging it also will stop for few min to cool down charger and recharge back for few times due to overheat problem. why the apple inc dun directly change a 12w charger in fact of the 5w charger got problem?

    I have no idea what you are referring to. If you have a new iPad, then it uses a 12w adaptor. If you have an iPad 3rd gen earlier, it uses a 10w adaptor. iPad Mini uses a 5w adaptor as do iPhones.
    The cost of the adaptor is irrelevant. The devices dictate what wattage adaptor you need to charge them. From Apple:
    iPad models come with one of two different adapters. iPad (third generation) and earlier comes with a 10W adapter while iPad (4th generation) comes with a 12W adapter. iPad mini comes with a 5W adapter.

  • I am a Media Pastor at a church and am needing to find a Macbook that will fulfill the needs of running Final Cut Pro and Wirestream. What Macbook would be sufficient to do the job?

    I am needing some guidance on the purchase of a Macbook Pro. I am wanting to have Wirestream Pro 4, a live streaming/recording software, and Final Cut Pro 7 and am needing to see what i would need to run them as far as drive capacity etc.

    The top end MacBook Pro 15" (17" high res/anti-glare for full 1080 HD screen)  for mobile video needs with some restrictions and hinderances, you will need the Build to Order 7,200 RPM drive for sure as you need space and speed.
    You can have 8GB of RAM from Apple or place 16GB in yourself for a lot less than Apple charges for 8GB. However you need to be handy with tiny screws, or have a local specialist do the 16GB for you.
    Your probally better off with a MacPro than a MacBook Pro.
    The MacPro is more powerful, and easier to get inside and do things, lasts longer, more ports, more drives, more storage for video, fast external RAID 5 setups etc.
    So if you can get into a MacPro, that would be a better option for video.

  • Where can I buy a SIM card for my iPad in Germany that will also work in France and Belgium?Germ

    I am travelling to Germany for 2 weeks in mid-July and would like a SIM card that would work there, and France and Belgium.
    Do they sell them in the Frankfurt airport?
    Anyone knows where they sell them in Cologne?
    A company called 'Cellular Abroad Support' (American) will sell me one for $59 plus $8.95 to cut it into a micro SIM.
    What is the best way to go?

    Hi
    On the Toshiba website you can search for the nearest authorized service provider. They sell all original Toshiba spare parts. Call them and ask for a new keyboard, they can order a new one for you.
    Here you can search for the nearest ASP:
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com => Support & Downloads => Find an authorized service provider
    Second hands you get from eBay for example but normally keyboards are not so expensive so I would buy a new one.
