The first electronic Basal Area/Dendrometer specifically engineered for the forest industry utilizing the latest technology and established measurement techniques. An integrated tilt sensor for slope-corrected measurements, an easy-to-use Basal Area Factor routine and an adjustable LED measurement bar scale with variable brightness make gathering highly accurate measurements almost effortless, even in the most challenging conditions. With unparalleled precision, low-cost and ease-of-use, the RD 1000 will change the way you work in the woods. The Criterion™ RD 1000 is the first-of-its-kind measurement unit engineered exclusively for the forest industry. This small, lightweight instrument can be used as a stand-alone instrument or attached to an Impulse or TruPulse™ 200 laser and data recorder(sold at CSP Outdoors under Binoculars, Rangefinders and Scopes)as a fully automatic data acquisition system. Timber cruisers have long desired an instrument which is slope-corrected, easy-to-use under various light conditions and provides a direct read-out of heights and diameters. In addition, it needs to be accurate, lightweight, multifunctional, dependable and inexpensive. The RD 1000 meets all these requirements. One of the instrument’s unique features is a row of LEDs in the sighting scope which can be viewed as a “solid bar” or as a “gap bar,” as defined by illuminated red segments on each end. The illuminated segments and display readings offer variable brightness levels which give you accurate readings under all lighting conditions. Another feature is the direct read-out of slope, heights and diameters displayed right in the eyepiece, which will update continuously as you adjust the controls. Diameter accuracy of +/- 0.25 inch can be maintained out to 80 feet away from the tree by utilizing the included, detachable magnifying lens. The RD 1000 can be used as a slope-corrected Basal Area scope for variable plot cruising (BAFs 1-127) and is quickly able to determine if questionable “borderline” trees are in or out of the plot. Used as a dendrometer, the RD 1000 will measure diameters anywhere on the stem and also the height at which a specific diameter occurs. And if that wasn’t enough, we designed it to be affordable too.
