Abstract

The difference between the measure point (PM) of the DBH (diameter of breast high) for trees growing in areas with slope ranging from 10 to 120% are studied in this paper. It shows that increasing the terrain's slope as well as the BHD the measurement's errors will be upper bounded by 6%.
