Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the historical and scientific development of the tacheometer, a device that revolutionized topographic surveying in the mid-19th century. The author traces the evolution of optical systems and mechanical armatures that led to the invention of the tacheometer, highlighting its impact on surveying practices and its role in shaping the field of geodesy. The book explores the principles of optics and geometry underlying the tacheometer's operation, explaining how the device's unique design allows for the measurement of distances, angles, and elevations from a single observation point. It also discusses the practical applications of the tacheometer in various fields, including civil engineering, architecture, and mapping. By examining the history and principles of the tacheometer, this book provides valuable insights into the development of surveying techniques and the role of scientific instruments in advancing our understanding of the world around us.
