Product Description
The Buteo Photo Gear groundsheet is specially designed for the Falco Mark II camouflage hide and provides optimal protection against damp ground, dirt, and insects such as ticks.
The durable groundsheet can be used flexibly on forest floors, meadows, or wet terrain. The Falco Mark II hide is then placed precisely on top of it.
By inserting the four included pegs at the corners, an elevated edge of approximately 10 cm is formed, providing additional protection against water and dirt (see product images).

Definition: The Water Column of a Tent
The water column indicates the maximum water pressure that a tent fabric can withstand.
A water column of 1,500 mm means that the tent fabric can withstand the pressure
of a 1,500 mm (1.5 meter) high column of water before water penetrates the fabric.
The higher it is, the more waterproof the tent material is.
Waterproofness
The water column is also a unit of measurement to measure the watertightness e.g.
B. of technical fabrics (tents, functional and rainwear).
DIN EN ISO 811:2018
regulates the method for determining the resistance to the penetration of water.
The following “hydrostatic water pressure test” must be carried out: The outside
of the material is exposed to the water. The water pressure starts at zero, the
water column rises by 100 mmWC or 600 mmWC per minute, depending on the standard.
The time is measured until the third drop can be seen on the inside. The pressure
that is acting at this point in time is then given in millimeters of water column.
Top tents are considered waterproof from 1500 mm
and tent floors from 2000 mm according to DIN.
