An inclinometer is an instrument for measuring inclination. More particularly, it can refer to:

  • An airplane instrument. See turn coordinator.
  • An instrument for measuring slight differences in slopes, particularly for geophysics. Such inclinometers are, for instance, used for monitoring volcanoes.
  • An inclinometer may also be used in civil engineering projects to measure movements in walls and/or the ground.
  • An inclinometer may also be used in some safety automotive systems.
  • use widely in geohazard monitoring programme
