Atlas of Switzerland Web (AoS Web) - Version 0.16.0

September 7, 2026

With this version, distances, areas and radii can be measured directly on the map.

New Features

  • New measuring tool: Lines, areas and circles can be measured on the map. The measurement takes the curvature of the Earth into account and shows the current length or area while drawing. Measuring points can be added, moved and removed afterwards.
  • The measuring tool is available in the theme overview, in the detail view and in the theme comparison. The settings are saved.

Improved Features

  • Settings such as synchronization in the comparison or the measuring tool are now operated with switches instead of checkboxes.

Instructions for Use

Open the “Tools” tab in the detail view of a thematic map and select “Measure”.
