测斜仪, 倾斜计
a specialized level or angle-measuring tool used for determining the angle of slope or inclination in various applications such as forestry, construction, and surveying
A clinometer is a tool used to measure angles of slope, elevation, or inclination of a surface. It works by using a liquid-filled vial or a digital sensor to determine the angle between the tool and a surface. Clinometers are commonly used in fields like surveying, forestry, and geology, as well as in construction and engineering to measure the steepness of slopes or the angle of structures. Some clinometers also have a built-in compass for measuring the direction of the slope. This tool helps ensure accurate measurements for tasks requiring precise angle determination.
