Computer laser measurement for modern standard size cards would probably work well but it gets a lot tricky with all the oddball sized pre war cards, with different methods of how they were cut and distrubuted.

Also many doctored cards measure just fine, they are soaked and pressed to stretch them before being trimmed.
Edit to add I see David already made this point and he is absolutely right.
