Measuring DBH and Height got easier thanks to our latest release to the ArborNote iOS App (Android coming soon!). iPhone Pro 12+ users can now tap a ruler icon and use their camera to get precise measurements. No more manual measurements or guesswork.
Once you’ve tapped the ruler icon, point your phone’s camera at the tree and use the ‘+’ symbol to activate LiDAR. DBH is one tap. For height, tap the ‘+’ symbol at the base, then span up to the top of tree and tap ‘+’ again. Tap ‘Use Measurement’ to record the measurement.
Explore how ArborNote LiDAR measurement works in our help article.
We have a whole host of LiDAR measurement improvements coming to the apps over the next few months.
