Usage examples

Termin „grafomeeter“ oli populaarne prantsuse geodeetide seas. Inglise keeles eelistati termineid "poolring" või "poolringikujuline nurgamõõteriist". Mõnedel 19. sajandi grafomeetritel olid lahtiste sihikute asemel teleskoopilised sihikud. Ühes 19. sajandi allikas, mis viitab 1709. a avaldatud teosele, kirjeldatakse grafomeetri kasutamist geomeetriliste kujundite kandmiseks aiaplaanidelt maastikule suures mastaabis.

graphometer former

Usage examples

The term graphometer was popular with French geodesists. The preferable English-language terms were semicircle or semicircumferentor. Some 19th-century graphometers had telescopic rather than open sights. 19th century graphometer, published in 1709, described the use of the graphometer in transferring geometric shapes from garden plans onto landscapes at a large scale.
