Measuring is required in some EA Sports to ensure a horse or pony is eligible for particular height categories in competition. Measuring can only be performed by an Official Equestrian Australia Measurer on an EA approved surface. You can read the general regulations including all the details of horses/ponies, their heights and the restrictions that come with them at http://www.equestrian.org.au/sites/default/files/EA%20measuring%20rules%20-%20update%202013.pdf
