Forests and forest research have always been important to me, both as a job and as a source of recreation. The relascope would like to travel all around the forests of the globe. Photos introducing interesting stands with info on its basal area would be a nice surprise.
Edit 26.11.2016 The original was lost in England. Thus, I released a copy, hopefully with better luck.
Relascope invented by Austrian forest researcher Walter Bitterlich is a simple but ingenious tool used in forest mesuration. Relascope is used to measure stand basal area and timber volume. Relascope consist of a chain with precise length and rigid slab attached to it. The slab has one or more apertures with precise width. It must be held at a fixed distance from your eye. You must then count trees that are larger than the width of the angle gauge.
