Abstract
UNDER the title of “Geodetic Surveying” this book deals with the determination of positions of points with the aid of which topographical surveys can be controlled and combined to form a consistent whole. The methods described are those which have been developed by the Coast and Geodetic Survey of the United States, and their publication in the present work provides a convenient summary of much that has been published in the reports of the survey.
