# Measures Functions
[Data Observatory Measures](/dataobservatory/overview/#measures-methods) allow you to access geospatial measures for analysis workflows. Measures are used by sending an identifier or a geometry (Point or Polygon) and receiving back a measure or absolute value for that location. Every measure contained in the Data Catalog can be accessed through the CartoDB Editor.
Below are the Measures functions. For detailed information for accessing any measures, see the catalog here, [Catalog PDF](http://cartodb.github.io/bigmetadata/index.html)
