Professional Ultrasound Hypsometer for Height, Distance & Angle Measurements

The Haglof Sweden Vertex 5 360° is a highly advanced ultrasound hypsometer designed for accurate and efficient measurement of height, distance and angles in forestry, surveying, utilities and environmental fieldwork. Representing decades of refinement in precision forestry instruments, it combines ultrasonic distance technology with a full 360° electronic angle sensor, making it an indispensable tool for professionals who need consistent and reliable results in varied terrain and vegetation.

Unlike traditional optical or mechanical hypsometers, the Vertex 5 uses ultrasonic signals to determine distances with high accuracy, even in dense forests where line-of-sight methods are impractical. When combined with its tilt and angle sensors, the instrument can calculate tree heights, slopes and clearances quickly and accurately, helping to save time while reducing errors in the field.

With built-in storage for up to 5,000 data sets, Bluetooth® connectivity for seamless data transfer, and functions such as Basal Area Factor (BAF) for sample plot work, the Vertex 5 is engineered to integrate smoothly into modern forestry and surveying workflows. Its lightweight yet durable design makes it easy to carry all day, while the intuitive interface and multilanguage support ensure it is accessible for teams working in diverse environments.
