Frequently Asked Questions
What is a tally counter used for in timber cruising?
A tally counter lets timber cruisers keep an accurate count of trees tallied in each diameter class or species without writing between each tally, speeding up cruise work and reducing errors in the field.
What is a multi-register tally counter?
A multi-register tally counter has multiple independent counters, allowing the user to track different species, diameter classes, or categories simultaneously. This is especially useful in mixed-species cruise work and wildlife surveys.
Do you carry digital tally devices for field inventory?
Yes. We carry both mechanical and digital tally counters. Digital options can often interface with data collection software. Pair with diameter tapes and prisms for efficient timber inventory.
