| Abstract | The first four chapters trace the history of surveying instruments from beginnings in Egypt, China, and Babylonia to Greece and Rome, then Europe, Islam, and India and finally in the Renaissance in Europe. The organization of these chapters is generally by the major areas of leveling instruments, right-angle instruments, staff combinations, and the astrolabe. The development of practical geometry in the school curriculum with emphasis on the use of outdoor measurement is discussed in chapter 5. Finally, applications of geometry and trigonometry to simple surveying are given. An extensive bibliography completes the book. (LS) |
