How to Use the Floor Plan Area Calculator

Whether you're a homebuyer estimating square footage, an architect checking measurements, or a real estate agent preparing a listing, this free online tool lets you calculate room areas and total floor area directly from a floor plan image — no expensive software required.

1

Upload Your Floor Plan

Click "Upload Floor Plan" or drag and drop any JPG or PNG image of your floor plan.

2

Auto-Detect or Draw

Click "Auto-Detect" to find wall intersections automatically, or use Draw Room to manually trace each room.

3

Set a Reference

Draw a reference line over a known dimension (e.g. a 90 cm door) and enter the real-world length to calibrate the scale.

4

Get Results

Instant area, perimeter and bounding-box dimensions for every room, plus total floor area in m² or ft².

Drawing Tips

Adding vertices: In Draw Room mode, click to place each vertex. Click the first vertex again (or press Enter) to close the polygon. You can also double-click any edge to insert a new vertex mid-line.

Editing: Switch to Select mode to drag any vertex to a new position. Right-click a vertex to remove it. Right-click a room to rename or delete it.

Snapping: When Auto-Detect has run, corners glow green. Your cursor snaps to them while drawing for precise alignment.

Zoom & Pan: Use the scroll wheel to zoom and Alt+drag (or middle-mouse drag) to pan around a large floor plan.

Understanding the Reference Measurement

The calculator works in pixel coordinates until you provide a real-world reference. Using the Reference Line tool, click two points on a feature whose real dimension you know — such as a standard internal door (usually 80–90 cm wide) or an exterior wall shown on the architect's legend. Enter that real dimension in the dialog box, and all areas and lengths will instantly convert to real-world units.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate the area of a floor plan?
Upload your floor plan image, trace the boundary of each room by clicking vertices, set a known reference measurement, and read the calculated areas in the results panel on the right. The tool uses the Shoelace (Gauss) formula for polygon area, which works for any shape — not just rectangles.
What image formats are supported?
Any image format your browser supports: JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP. For best results use a high-resolution scan or export from your CAD software at ≥ 150 DPI.
How accurate are the measurements?
Mathematical accuracy is limited only by the precision of your traced vertices. The biggest source of error is usually the reference measurement itself — a 5 % error in the reference produces a ~10 % error in area. Use the largest possible reference distance for best results.
Can I measure irregular or curved rooms?
Yes. Place more vertices to approximate curves. The more vertices you add along a curved wall, the more accurate the area will be.
Is my floor plan uploaded to a server?
No. Everything runs entirely in your browser — your floor plan image never leaves your device.
Can I export the results?
Yes. Click "Export CSV" to download a spreadsheet with room names, areas, perimeters, and dimensions for use in Excel, Google Sheets or any other tool.
