Their use is, however, limited, from the fact that the meter is the unit of horizontal measurement while the elevations are in feet. The bulk of the tables furnish differences of level for stadia readings up to 400 meters, but only up to 10° of elevation. Supplementary tables give the elevations up to 30° for a distance of one meter. For obtaining horizontal...

As c varies with different instruments, these last two expressions were calculated for three different values of c, thus furnishing a ratio from which values of c sin n and c cos n can be easily determined for an instrument having any constant (c). Similar tables have been computed 'by JA Ockerson and Jared Teeple, of the United States Lake Survey. Their use is, however, limited, from the fact that the meter is the unit...

Página 50 - The dill'erence may be due, perhaps to some cause which I did not consider, such as a slight leaning of the rod forward or backward, inexactness in placing the face of the rod precisely at the station, imperfect graduation of the rod, imperfect cleanliness or transparency of the glasses or of the air, imperfection in the shape of the lenses or in their adjustments to one another, inferior lighting of the magnified...
