Platform Features

Miles / Kilometres Unit Selector

4 min read

Switch your workspace between imperial and metric distance units for cross-border operations โ€” the change syncs across map, reports, Driver Briefings, and the Client Delivery Portal.

RoadScope supports both miles and kilometres for distance display across the platform. Carriers running cross-border lanes can switch units to match the convention of the jurisdiction they are operating in.

Where to Set It

Open Settings โ†’ Workspace Preferences โ†’ Units (or use the toggle in the map sidebar) and pick Miles or Kilometres. The setting applies to your user account and takes effect immediately.

What Changes

  • Route distances and segment lengths
  • Speed displays in NAV
  • Distance columns in exports and reports
  • Distance fields in the permit auto-fill output
  • Street View ruler labels and measuring-tool readouts

Short-Distance Display

Short measurements now display in metres or feet, with auto-promotion to kilometres or miles for longer measurements โ€” no more awkward "0.03 km" readouts.

What Does Not Change

Clearance heights, widths, and weights are governed by their own unit settings (feet/inches vs. metres; pounds vs. kilograms). Set those independently under the same Units panel.
