Description

Ten surveying instruments and accessories: Theodolite, Total station, Optical level, Brunton pocket transit, Surveying tripod, Surveying prism, GNSS survey receiver, Surveyor's chain, Measuring tape, Plumb bob. Real photographs introduce their shapes and visible details. The total station, historical level and chain are museum examples. Some chain links are gathered in the case; the tape reel shows a short extended section. A thematic selection, not an accuracy ranking.
