The study was conducted to discuss the theory and practical application of point sampling method using Spiegel Relaskop that can reduce time and expenses with efficiency in field work for stand inventory. An example of the analysis for real data was given to help practical foresters easily compute basal area, number of trees and volume per hectare even though the theory of point sampling technique is relatively difficult. Also, a SAS program for personal computer and the handling methods of pocket calculator were provided to easily use the point sampling technique in data analysis.
