Measures elevation or altitude
Manually operated water pump for fighting forest fires
Determines the thickness of tree bark
Used by loggers to clear land
Used to roll or
turn logs
Manually felling
trees, delimbing,
and bucking.
Reduces impact
of running chainsaws,
protecting workers.
Measures tree height and slope of the ground
Store daily data in forests like temperature,
relative humidity, and light intensity. Helps
foresters predict when forest fires are more
likely
A densitometer is a device used for measuring the
photographic density of an image on a film or
photographic print.
Measures the outside diameter of the main stem
of trees
An overlay device for arriving at a quick estimate
of area of some feature on a photo by counting
dots. Dots may be regularly spaced or random.
Starts controlled prescribed burns in forest and
prairies
Used to cut timber
Measures horizontal distance
Removes leaf litter and duff to create fire lines
Instruments used to measure weather conditions
and determine danger risk levels for forest fires
Extinguishes slow spreading ground fires
A current meter is oceanographic device for flow
measurement by mechanical, acoustical means, or
electrical means.
Handheld, satellite based device used to
determine location data
Used to measure the magnetic direction of sighted
objects relative to the user
Used to magnify items.
Measures distance over any terrain and through
forests
Kills undesirable trees by penetrating into
sapwood a herbicide
Extracts small cylinders of wood from the bark to
pith of a tree. Used to age and determine
growth of trees.
For determining board foot lumber volume in
logs
Tree diameter on one side and liner feet on the
other
electronic device used for measuring the pH
(acidity or alkalinity) of a liquid
Used to determine acreage from a map by tracing
the perimeter on a scaled map
A structure typically made of two ventilated
frames 12 X 18 inches, within which plants may
be arranged between sheets of driers
Used to mark an area or object
An axe and grubbing hoe tool that can trench and
cut roots commonly used in fighting wildfires
Used to take individual tree diameter and heights
during forest inventories
Personal protective equipment used to protect the
eyes from debris an impact
Combination hard hat, ear, and eye protection
required in logging
Tool used to take a sample of soil from the
ground
A soil test kit is a kit used to find the analysis of a
soil sample to determine nutrient content,
composition and other characteristics, including
contaminants.
Traditional compass used to survey forest and
fields.
Land is seen in three-dimension and all objects
stand out. Height can be observed in even the
smallest object with great detail
Different instruments used by surveyors
Used in cruising timber to keep record
Counts from 0 to 99,999. Fits in hand and used in
cruising.
Measures tree diameter very accurately
Used to harvest timber
Sprays paint on trees to mark boundaries and sale
trees
Tool used to create a narrow opening in the
ground for planting bare-root tree seedlings
Used to move timber out of the woods.
Measures tree diameter, log height, and the
volume of timber in a tree
Takes samples of water
Analysis of a water sample to determine nutrient
content, composition and other characteristics,
including contaminants.
Angled glass tool used to find merchantable size
for trees quickly.
Measure from any unobstructed sighting position
and at any height on the tree stump, DBH, or
merchantable height.
