With the **AB measurement** ![http://stage.keyaqua.keypro.fi/static/image/ab_measure.png](https://cdn.document360.io/672fb328-110d-4b2d-9d5f-f1e71883bb64/Images/Documentation/keycom-object-forms-image-20x6j0ze.png) tool, you can create measurements on the map.

In the main menu, click **AB measurement** ![http://stage.keyaqua.keypro.fi/static/image/ab_measure.png](https://cdn.document360.io/672fb328-110d-4b2d-9d5f-f1e71883bb64/Images/Documentation/keycom-object-forms-image-k5dtsqk1.png) to open the tool. On the displayed AB measurement form, enter the A and B measures in metres and click **Create** to activate the map placement function. First you enter two points in the tool to create a line that is used as the basis for creating the AB measurement on the map. When you have entered the points, use your mouse to rotate the measurement direction in 90-degree steps. Click the left mouse button to accept the measurement.
