Synopsis

The Evolution Of Mine-Surveying Instruments (1902) is a historical book written by Dunbar D. Scott. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the development of mine-surveying instruments from ancient times to the early 20th century. The author begins by discussing the earliest forms of mine surveying and how they evolved over time. He then delves into the various types of instruments used in mine surveying, including theodolites, compasses, clinometers, and levels. The book also covers the use of instruments in underground mining, such as plumb bobs and inclinometers. The author provides detailed descriptions of each instrument, along with illustrations and diagrams to aid in understanding. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of mine surveying or the development of surveying instruments.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
