To Use the SmartMAP Measure Tool (Touch-based Device)

This procedure details the steps in SmartMAP for using the Measure tool with a touch-based device.
  1. If necessary, open SmartMAP
  2. To reveal the incident info panel, select an active building tile or place an incident marker
  3. From within the incident info panel, select the Measure tool ruler button
