Measurements

The 3D Disto is a combination of a precise laser distance meter (LDM) and angle
encoders. Measurements are used to establish the relation between different targets,
such as horizontal distances, tie distances, height differences to determine room
dimensions, angles from wall to wall, areas, volumes, plumb points, or other features.

Pointfinder

The 3D Disto has an integrated camera. It is accessible by
image directly on the 3D Disto display. The crosshairs in the Pointfinder image allow
precise targeting and measuring even if the laser beam is not visible, for example over
long distances or because of bright backlight conditions.
