Atterbury Consultants adds a lens cover to the RD1000 BAF scope prior to shipping to help protect the front lens while cruising without the magnifier.

Measure the Basal Area Factor in a modern way

The RD 1000 BAF scope/dendrometer is an instrument suitable all types of timber plot sampling. It automatically compensates for slope, can be used to determine in and out trees, and has an in scope LED display for poor lighting conditions. The user can easily determine the diameter of a tree at any point along the stem.

The RD 1000 Movie Clip shows the view through the scope.

Check out the User's Manual for more information.

Measurement Modes

• BAF

Visually estimates if trees fall in or out of a given plot as related to the specified Basal Area Factor.

• In/Out

Internally computes the limiting distance for questionable, borderline trees and determines if they are in or out of the plot.

• Diameter

Determines the diameter of a tree at any given height.

• Height/Diameter

Provides the ability to determine the height at which a specific diameter occurs.

• Raw Inclination

Measures inclination in percent slope.

Atterbury Consultants installs a screen protector on the exterior LCD display to prevent scratching and ensure future readability.

The sealed electronic inclinometer inside the RD1000 BAF scope never sticks and cannot suffer from a jammed brake button.

Advantages:

Does not fog up like other BAF devices
Works well in dark stands due to in scope illumination.
Calibration is simple and does not require disassembly.
The tilt sensor stabilizes quickly and never sticks.
Heights and diameters are displayed in the view finder and on the side screen.
