    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_height_measurement

    Tree height is the vertical distance between the base of the tree and the tip of the highest branch on the tree, and is difficult to measure accurately. It is not the same as the length of the trunk. [note 1] If a tree is leaning, the trunk length may be greater than the height of the tree. The base of the tree is where the projection of the ...

    Shorter trees can be measured using a long pole extended vertically to the top of the tree.

    The Tule tree has a diameter of 38 feet 1.4 inches (1,161.8 cm) as measured by tape wrap, but because of its irregularity a cross-sectional wood area expressed as a circle gave an effective diameter of only 30 feet 9 inches (937 cm). The base of the tree was mapped in three dimensions using a frame mapping technique.
