Photographic Surveying

Photographic Surveying: Including The Elements Of Descriptive Geometry And Perspective is a book written by E. Deville in 1895. The book is a comprehensive guide to the use of photography in surveying, and covers the essential principles of descriptive geometry and perspective. It is designed to be a practical guide for surveyors, engineers, and architects who are interested in using photography to create accurate maps, plans, and elevations. The book begins by introducing the basic principles of photography, including the properties of light and the use of the camera. It then moves on to discuss the use of photography in surveying, including the use of stereoscopic photography to create 3D models of terrain. The book also covers the use of photography in measuring distances and angles, and in creating accurate maps and plans. In addition to its practical applications, Photographic Surveying also provides a detailed overview of the principles of descriptive geometry and perspective. These principles are essential for understanding the geometry of objects and their representation in two dimensions, and are particularly important for surveyors and engineers. Overall, Photographic Surveying: Including The Elements Of Descriptive Geometry And Perspective is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the use of photography in surveying and engineering. It provides a comprehensive overview of the essential principles and techniques, and is written in a clear and accessible style.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
