Touch screen, save and measure in pictures

Go ahead, touch it
The large touch screen and icon based interface allow you to easily select functions and take measurements. Use familiar gestures like swiping to change menus, or use two fingers to increase or decrease your zoom. Avoid accidentally moving the Disto D810 by taking the measurement using the touch screen.
A picture is worth a thousand words measurements
Capture the width, height, area or even the diameter of any object easily with a single measurement. Best results are achieved when the measuring object is displayed maximum size on the D810 screen and measured at a right angle. In such case the accuracy is below 1% of the measured object.

You measure at right angles to the object. The object appears in the display and then you can mark the required dimension with the arrows. The display then shows the value. In this way you can, for example, measure the width, height and area of an advertising board using only one distance measurement.

Measure to the center of the object with the device. The object appears in the display and then you can mark the diameter with the arrows. The display then shows the result. This function is ideal, for example, for determining the diameter of a tree trunk.

Precision at the core
The Disto D810 offers multiple indirect measuring functions. Due to the specially developed tilt sensor the results are very precise. The digital point-finder and overview camera allow you to target and take measurements in bright sunlight or unfavorable conditions with 1x, 2x and 4x zoom levels.

Throw out your notepad



Replace the classic notepad by drawing sketches and applying measurement results directly to them. Name measurement lines, or draw directly on a photograph. You can also email sketches directly from the job site to the office for further processing.

Capture and document with photos
Take pictures for record purposes and download them to your computer using the USB interface. The integrated overview camera gives you more image information. With tricky measurements for example, you can photograph and record target points or specific features.
The screen shot function is excellent for recording information about measurements. You can save all information appearing in the display, i.e. the measurement results and the view of the Point-finder, and then transfer it over the USB interface to a computer. This ensures every measurement is always clearly identified.
Photos are stored in 800x600 resolution, screen shots 240x400 All images are saved in jpg format.

Proven Accuracy and Repeatability
The Disto D810 by Leica Geosystems is compliant to ISO 16331-1, which is a new industry standard developed by an international committee. The range and accuracy of laser distance meters depend greatly on light conditions and how reflective the targeted surface is.
Many distance meters can achieve great results in a controlled laboratory environment, but let's face it, most measuring does not take place in the ideal environment. Leica worked with external experts to help develop and create a standard by which laser distance meters can be tested and compared with each other.
