Cruise Angle iCMT vs gcAE

The Cruise Angle iCMT app can turn your iPad, iPod or iPhone into an angle gauge for selecting sample trees for timber cruising. When using the point sampling method for timber inventory, the forester first determines a suitable Basal Area Factor (BAF) for the timber stand. Then the corresponding angle gauge is used to select the sample trees. At each sampling point, the forester scans the trees through the opening of the angle gauge. Any tree that completely fills the opening is deemed a sample tree. From the tally of sample trees, one can obtain the basal area per acre. Instead of bringing along a few angle gauges, you could just as well use the Cruise Angle iCMT app on your iOS mobile device to pick the sample trees. Cruise Angle iCMT will enable you to do the following: * Work with Metric and English measurement units. * Calibrate the gauge or enter the camera FOV angle value. * Change the color and transparency of the on-screen angle gauge. * Select from a list of the commonly used BAF values. * Tally the sample trees for a point. * View the Basal Area per Acre for a point. * Check borderline trees based on limiting distance calculation. * Calculate the actual stem length of a leaning tree. * Convert between horizontal distance and slope distance. * Measure distances on the displayed Map. * Measure an area on the displayed Map. The Node tool provided by Cruise Angle iCMT will let you drop nodes precisely to delineate a line or an area to view the measurement value. You could also add your GPS location as a node. Please note: Location data depends on the GPS receiver used. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. The app will let you easily toggle the built-in GPS on or off. This app comes with a built-in help file.

gcAE is a small helper tool for interacting with geocaching websites. It all started with an action extension to easily perform some actions on geocaching websites. New with gcAE 4.0 a real iOS 15 Safari extension is included. This way the actions are even faster reachable. Use the main app to configure the actions you want to see on geocaching websites. The following are available: - Copy gc code to clipboard - Copy gc link to clipboard - Copy personal notes to clipboard - Copy gc link and personal notes to clipboard - Copy listing coordinates to clipboard - Create a calendar entry (requires to send a local notification which you have to click) - Open geocache in one of your installed geocaching apps like Cachly - Open the coordinates in one of your installed navigation apps - Solve reverse caches (-waldmeister- reverse cache works best; also basic support for day1976 reverse cache. See Wiki Entry) There are also actions available which will be automatically performed on the geocaching website when switched on - Remove disclaimer banner - Show hint decrypted - Remove ads - Remove print section - Clean attributes area - Clean inventory area - Remove map - Clean other links - Automatically load and display favorite percentage There is a variation of geocaching and navigation apps supported. The main app will list the ones you have installed. The previous action extension is still available and covers all the actions the new Safari extension does. With the action extension you can also pass the gc code from publish emails to your geocaching app. Just long press the link in the email, select share and gcAE. You then have the option to open the gc code in your geocaching app ---- Coordinates on geocaching.com are only visible if you have an account there.
