Cave Survey with CaveMeter App
CaveMeter uses an android smartphone to survey a cave with a traverse line.
The application measures the declination and the bearing to the next measuring point and saves data in a file. Length must be determined externally with a tape or laser.
The app includes a barometric altimeter, several calibration tools and satnav option to regain cave entrances and use GPX tracks, including altitude profile.
