Using the resolvent operator, we develop an algorithm for computing smoothed approximations of spectral measures associated with self-adjoint operators. The algorithm can achieve arbitrarily high orders of convergence in terms of a smoothing parameter for computing spectral measures of general differential, integral, and lattice operators. Explicit pointwise and L-p-error bounds are derived in terms of the local regularity of the measure. We provide numerical examples, including a partial differential operator and a magnetic tight-binding model of graphene, and compute 1000 eigenvalues of a Dirac operator to near machine precision without spectral pollution. The algorithm is publicly available in SpecSolve, which is a software package written in MATLAB.
