Video Distance Marking

A focused video-review application for marking distances and keeping visual measurement work repeatable, reviewable, and easier to explain.

Problem

Video often contains the evidence needed to answer distance and position questions, but manual review can be inconsistent. A useful tool needs to make marks, calibration, review, and explanation feel deliberate instead of ad hoc.

Solution

Video Distance Marking is positioned around a repeatable workflow: load footage, identify reference points, mark frames, review the evidence, and preserve the reasoning so someone else can follow the result.

Frame-focused review

Designed around careful visual inspection rather than a generic media-player experience.

Marking workflow

Supports the disciplined placement and review of points used for distance reasoning.

Explainable output

The project emphasizes visible evidence and repeatable human review over black-box claims.
