Pamphlet, Coradi's Detail Coordinatograph

Object Details

Description
This illustrated pamphlet is a reprint of an article by the surveyor Artur Grünert describing an improved form of Coradi’s coordinatograph introduced in 1909. This “detail coordinatograph” was used for “mapping rectangularly measured points of details surveyed.” The original article appeared in the Zeitschrift für Vermessungswesen in 1912. For further documentation of the coordinatograph, see 1977.0112.03 03 and 1977.0112.05.
The documentation was received with a Coradi rolling sphere planimeter with number 1977.0112.01.
