Archaeological North Arrow Set Forestry Suppliers Kit 25 cm

Description

Product Overview

The Forestry Suppliers Archaeological North Arrow Set is engineered for precision and durability, delivering a reliable reference system for archaeological documentation. Crafted from high‑grade aluminum alloy, each arrow balances lightweight handling with robust resistance to wear in field conditions. The set includes a 25 cm master arrow, a 3 cm mini arrow, and two 10 mm markers, each laser‑etched with clear metric and standard conversion markings on the opposite side. This dual‑scale design enables seamless translation between measurement systems, reducing transcription errors and streamlining data collection. The package dimensions of 12 × 4 × 1 inches and a total weight of just one pound make the kit portable for on‑site surveys while maintaining a solid feel that resists bending or deformation. Designed in collaboration with Cultural Resource Technologies, the product meets the rigorous standards expected by academic institutions and professional heritage consultants.

Usage

Ideal for both classroom instruction and field excavation, the North Arrow Set integrates effortlessly into a variety of workflows. In a classroom setting, instructors can demonstrate proper site orientation, allowing students to practice aligning photographs with true north and applying metric conversions directly on the image. During fieldwork, archaeologists can attach the 25 cm arrow to a tripod or handheld camera, ensuring each photograph captures a consistent scale reference. The smaller 3 cm arrow and 10 mm markers are perfect for close‑up documentation of artifacts, offering fine‑grained scale without obscuring detail. The set’s lightweight construction means it can be carried in a standard field bag alongside other essential tools such as trowels, brushes, and GPS units. Its corrosion‑resistant finish guarantees longevity even in humid or coastal environments, making it a dependable companion for multi‑season projects.
