'Field Calculator Functions' provides geodesic functions in the field calculator. Consider a simple, 1-meter on a side, yellow square around the south pole. 'Azimuth, Distance Digitizer' digitizes points based on a clicked point, an azimuth and distance or creates a geodesic line from a clicked point to an azimuth and distance. 'Geodesic flip & rotate tools' provide geodesic flip and rotation vector feature transformations. 'Geodesic Transformation Tool' can scale, rotate and translate any shape. 'Geodesic Measurement Layer' converts a polygon or line layer a new layer with all geometries measured and labeled. It will even saves the measurements as a layer.

'Geodesic Measure Tool' measures distances using the WGS 84 ellipsoid and includes the bearing or heading between points. 'Geodesic distance & Time Decimation' remove points or vertices from a point or line layer using geodesic distances or time. 'Geodesic Densifier' creates geodesic lines and polygons by adding additional vertices along geodesic paths within the shape. 'Geodesic Line Break' breaks lines at the International Date Line. 'XY to Line' uses pairs of coordinates from each record to create geodesic lines. 'Create Shapes' processes a point vector layer to create ellipses, pie wedges, donuts, arc wedges, lines of bearing, points along a line of bearing, polygons, stars, ellipse roses, hypocyloids, polyfoils, epicycloids, radial lines, and hearts based on the table's fields and other parameters. Shape Tools is installed in the Vector menu. Shape Tools is a collection of geodesic shapes and tools.
