Is there a way to have LandFX calculate how much area is covered by the irrigation in a valve zone? Now due to Water restrictions and State ordinances all of our valves are designed to be unique hydrozones. if we had a way for LandFX to calculate the SQFT of coverage we could export to a spreadsheet and develop the water use tables very easily all we would need to add would be plant factor and irrigation effeciency (which could be a LandFX thing as well). Drip areas and dripline would seem to be easy as you have a defined boundary, and the software already knows the areas of coverage for sprays and rotors because it can identify them during coverage mapping(?), i am not sure how you would do bubblers (we typically set a generic square footage).
Just a thought

You are correct regarding the Bubblers (but also Rotors, and split Spray zones), that it isn't immediately an easy task.
We do have this well noted as a wishlist, but even there, is a lot of unanswered questions.
In the interim, the best solution is still to use our Schematic tool at the beginning of a project, which will give you all of your Areas, and also assist with defining the necessary Source and mainline layout.

PS - sorry for the explosion of requests and questions, I just got done with two large submittals and wrote my thoughts down as things came up and now that they are in for review I have the ability to take a breath and deal with how to do the next projects better.
