Moasure®, the brand behind the world’s first motion-based measuring device, has received a prestigious award for innovation at the company’s inaugural visit to one of the world’s largest landscape industry events.
Creators of the pocket-sized Moasure® ONE™ digital measuring tool that rapidly measures outdoor and indoor spaces, the company was exhibiting for the first time at GaLaBau, a leading international trade show at Nuremberg Exhibition Center, Germany.
Revolutionizing how professionals measure complex outdoor spaces, Moasure ONE is transforming the garden design and landscape construction industry with its ability to measure irregular shapes while simultaneously capturing an on-screen diagram. Landscaping industry professionals who previously relied on error-prone traditional measuring tools can now rapidly calculate area, measure perimeters and distance while factoring in gradients and elevations.
Using accelerometers, gyroscopes and advanced, proprietary algorithms, Moasure ONE measures its own movement in 3 dimensions without relying on cell phone signal or GPS.
Following strict evaluation criteria, the GaLaBau 2022 Innovation Award was presented to Moasure by a panel of experts from the Federal Association of Horticulture, Landscaping and Sports Facilities, a trade association representing over 4,000 companies across Germany’s gardening, landscaping and sports field construction.
The biennial event attracted over 60,000 professionals from 76 countries representing a variety of industry areas across the gardening and landscaping community. Exhibiting with an expert, multi-lingual team, Moasure attracted many thousands of visitors with live demonstrations of its transformational Moasure ONE measuring tool.
GaLaBau 2022 also saw the introduction of a new forum, Digitalization@GaLaBau, focused on the theme of digitalization for companies and its positive impact on productivity and efficiency.
Commenting on Moasure’s live demonstrations at the trade show, Tjards Wendebourg, Editor-in-Chief of specialist magazine DEGA GALABAU wrote on Facebook:
“[Moasure] is one exhibitor who can probably claim to have had the largest flow of visitors relative to the size of their exhibition space”.
Moasure employee Beril Sezmis, participant at the forum and representing the company in Europe’s German-speaking region, said:
“We were delighted to exhibit at GaLaBau Nuremberg for the first time ever, meeting both existing and new customers, some of whom traveled from across Europe just to see Moasure ONE in action. Our showcase space for live demonstrations attracted large crowds of trade show attendees, with some commenting that from over 1,000 exhibitors, Moasure was the most memorable.
“We were able to demonstrate Moasure ONE’s ability to rapidly measure complex and irregular shapes whilst simultaneously drawing a measurement diagram on-screen in real-time. Visitors were especially pleased to confirm that as well as perimeter and area calculations, Moasure ONE can effortlessly measure and calculate changes in elevation.
“Professionals from a host of industries including garden design, landscape construction, playground design and many others were amazed at how rapid 3D measurements can be made with Moasure – and how simply those measurements can be exported to AutoCAD, DATAFlor, Vectorworks and other popular software.
“Visitors to our live demonstrations reacted very positively to Moasure ONE’s pricing – and to the fact that there are no recurring costs or subscription fees.”
Commenting on the success of GaLaBau 2022, Moasure Founder and Co-CEO Alan Rock said:
“We’re honored to have not only participated in the first GaLaBau trade show in four years, but to have also been awarded with the GaLaBau 2022 Innovation Award and for being invited to participate in the inaugural Digitalization@GaLaBau forum event.
“To have our technology recognized and awarded by a respected and interdisciplinary evaluation committee underlines the transformative impact that Moasure is having across the landscaping, gardening, construction, playground and pool industries.
“With the launch of our German-language website last year www.moasure.de and subsequent launch of websites for Spain, Italy and France, we’re on track to double our sales again within the next year, having seen them grow 180 percent in the past 12 months.”
Following Moasure’s exhibiting at GaLaBau, the company showcased its revolutionary measuring device at the inaugural ELEVATE conference and expo in Orlando, USA – hosted by the National Association of Landscape Professionals (NALP).
Moasure is scheduled to attend further trade shows and exhibitions this year, including Hardscape North America in Louisville, USA on October 19th – 21st.
We use the Moasure almost every day, it's accurate and fast when measuring square footage and slopes for jobs.
Have used Moasure to measure multiple aspects of golf course operations to include: greens, fairways, tee boxes, roughs, lakes, parking lots, buildings and cart paths for current and planned projects. Quick, easy and accurate helping our day-to-day operations, and project bidding processes for hiring contractors. Simplified measurements with dramatically more accuracy, cost determination and savings. Great product….thank you for developing such a great tool.
First off I’d like to state that I don’t typically give less than 5 stars unless it truly deserves less than 5 stars. This product is amazing, and I love the fact that I can really trust my measurements now, and in confidence tell my customers exactly how much material to expect. I do landscaping installs and this thing is a GAME changer for sod. However there are a few things I think it could improve on.
1. Using this thing without the stick is miserable. I haven’t ordered the stick yet, but constantly picking it up and moving it sucks. The stick is $70 so it’s hard to want to purchase it at first, but trust me… don’t buy this thing without it.
2. The accuracy. I would not use this tool and expect extremely accurate measurements. This is a great tool to use for estimating square footage of a job, but I wouldnt actually use it as a tool to measure materials. It works great when you can have a decent margin of error.
3. The on-off. Maybe I’m doing it wrong, but it seems annoying to turn it on. I’m sure I’m just ignorant to this one.
4. The price. Obviously it’s quite expensive, so I think it was worth the initial investment? The only reason I can say yes is because now I can train other employees to do estimates. Before, there was no way I would ever trust one of my guys to measure someone’s yard for sod. Now I plan on getting them trained on Moasyre and I can step away from the measuring! It’s a true game changer in this aspect. If you’re unsure of your measurements, JUST BUY THIS THING.
The product is easy to set up, understand and use. The Moasure is a link that every estimator is currently missing in their tool box. The Moasure is on every job we estimate and can show the team the lay out before going to the job. If you are debating on getting one, don’t wait, you are making the right choice.
I use this for estimating fencing and landscaping jobs. Depending on the size of the project, this is a lot faster than eveny wheel measuring tool. The automatic area calculation speeds up material quantity estimates considerably, especially on odd shaped areas. I would definitely recommend. I have 2 devices for myself and the other estimator at my company.
We are a large landscape company and have been using this tool for about a month. There is a learning curve that we have figured out, and the tool is extremely helpful in getting the correct measurements quickly.
We are a full service landscaping company. This thing paid for itself the first time i used it. Subbed out a 6900 sq ft concrete driveway and we had a disagreement on the total square footage due to curves and a huge flair. Texted the contractor a screenshot of the moasure measurements and that was the end of the dissagreement!
There is a learning curve, but the app is great and the device seems to work great. My lead estiamtor just used it on a large sod job and our measurements differed 1500 sq ft between wheel and moasure. Needless to say moasure was accurate.
Im about to buy another one!
I can measure and do quotes 10x faster. It is very accurate and even tells you when you are not using it properly. I highly recommend this device!
I am building designer and general contractor and have found Moasure to be an amazing tool. After practicing for about 3 hours in my yard / house, I've already measured 3 interior floorplans and 4 site plans. The interior measurements with Wall Mode are brilliant - it quickly records wall planes as well as perpendicular door or window openings. It easily cut my time for interior measurements of existing conditions in half. Combined with my laser tape measure, I can significantly reduce the time spent measuring. The exterior site measurements are equally impressive - because all data is 2D and 3D, I save having to set up a laser level to measure grades / elevations on a building site. Moasure will reduce the need for sending my surveyor on site to get topo information for building sites.
Overall I'm very impressed with Moasure's capabilities and will no doubt be using it on every job in the future.
It took a while to learn how to use but it quickly became our favorite tool to help in our bidding process.
Love the Device, cuts my measuring and design time down to a minimum. Very Accurate. And I love how light and easy it is to carry around. Great tool! Our company bought a second and we will most likely buy a couple more in the near future!
I got the Moasure One to simplify estimating for my flooring company. It has been very helpful to save me time on measurements, especially calculating the total square footage manually room by room. It also shows me the linear footage of the trim so I don’t need to measure twice or guesstimate how much we need.
I highly recommend!
Makes measuring properties for fences easy and fun. My customer are impressed by the "high tech" way we measure.
We are currently using Moasure for septic compliance inspections and building plans for demolition in our office. The wall feature us great for verifying construction and recreating floor plans. Guessing area and angles are a thing of the past now. The ability to have a 3D model in minutes is amazing to have. Looking to outfit more employees with Moasure to be more efficient in the field and more accurate!
