Vertex is many foresters’ preferred choice of instrument to perform precision height, angle and distance
measurements in the forest. The Vertex 5 can be used in dense vegetation and undergrowth.
Measuring functions
Vertex 5 is developed for measuring tree height, but it is of course possible to measure any preferable height.
The instrument measures the distance and angles then calculates the heights with trigonometry up to 999 meters or 3277 feet, with a resolution of 0.1m (0.1 ft).
Height
1. Aim towards the transponder. Press and hold down ON until the sight cross goes out and you get the distace.
2. Aim to the height to measure. Press and hold down ON until the sight cross goes out and the measured height is displayed.
It is also possible to measure only distance or angle, e.g. slope angle.
FEATURES:
Measure Distance up to 30 meters or 100 feet with a resolution of 0,01 m or 0,1 feet even in dense vegetation, and with an accuracy of +-1% or better if calibrated
Measure Heights up to 999 meters or 3277 feet with a resolution of 0.1m/0.1 ft
Measure Angles in Degrees 360°, Grads 400° or percent % with a resolution of 0.1°
5000 data sets can be stored in the built-in memory and saved as a CSV file
Bluetooth® 4.0 (BLE) can be used to transfer data wirelessly to devices with Android, iOS, or Windows
(BAF) Basal Area Function to determine the minimum diameter DBH that a tree most have, on sample point to be counted
