## Description

Smartarea is a powerful Chrome extension designed for quick and accurate measurement of areas and distances using your mobile device's GPS and Google Maps. Ideal for professionals and hobbyists alike, it supports applications such as fieldwork, construction planning, roof area calculations, and sports activities.

With Smartarea, you can set, adjust, or delete measurement points directly on the map interface. The tool automatically scales and centers your view, offers selection between different measurement units, and allows toggling between map and satellite views. You can save your measurements by exporting them as KML files compatible with Google Earth or Google Maps, name your areas, and send your data via email as images or files. This user-friendly extension enhances productivity by simplifying spatial measurements with precise GPS integration.
