Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book provides practical methods for surveyors to determine the true bearing of a line, a crucial task for ensuring the accuracy of land surveys. It bridges the gap between traditional surveying techniques and the often complex world of astronomical observation. The author emphasizes the importance of independent checks on angular measurements, particularly in extensive surveys where errors can accumulate. The book's primary focus is on utilizing astronomical observations of the sun and stars to verify the accuracy of surveyed angles. It features a collection of methods that balance precision with efficiency, making them readily applicable in the field. The author acknowledges the historical precedent of these methods, which have been explored in works on navigation, astronomy, and surveying, but offers a comprehensive and accessible guide tailored specifically for surveyors. The book delves into the intricacies of celestial motion, explaining concepts such as the meridian, polar distance, declination, and hour angle. It guides readers through making observations using a transit, including adjustments for refraction and index error. The author also offers practical tips for identifying key stars and utilizing readily available tables to streamline calculations. By providing a user-friendly approach to celestial navigation, the book empowers surveyors to confidently integrate astronomical techniques into their practice, ensuring greater accuracy and reliability in their work. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verk�ufers 9781332732487_0
