TRAVERSE TABLES:
Computed to Four Places of Decimals for every Minute of Angle up
to 100 of Distance.
For the Use of Surveyors and Engineers.
By RICHARD LLOYD GURDEN,
Authorised Surveyor for the Governments of New South Wales and
Victoria.
=⁂= _Published with the Concurrence of the Surveyors-General for
New South Wales and Victoria_.
“Those who have experience in exact Survey-work will best know
how to appreciate the enormous amount of labour represented by
this valuable book. The computations enable the user to ascertain
the sines and cosines for a distance of twelve miles to within
half an inch, and this BY REFERENCE TO BUT ONE TABLE, in place
of the usual Fifteen minute computations required. This alone is
evidence of the assistance which the Tables ensure to every user,
and as every Surveyor in active practice has felt the want of such
assistance. FEW KNOWING OF THEIR PUBLICATION WILL REMAIN WITHOUT
THEM.”--_Engineer_.
