0 a piece of equipment like a small telescope, used for measuring horizontal and vertical angles:
The surveyor set up his theodolite and took some measurements.
The registration between the pressure sensor location and surface profile location was monitored very carefully using a theodolite sighting system.
The coordinates and elevation of each observation well were determined through stadia surveying, using a theodolite.
Such records may also be obtained by small balloons that carry no instrument when they are followed by means of a theodolite during their ascent.
Historians will envy the opportunities which the geographer's work with the theodolite creates for conversation about the past with curious farmers.
It was not only light that illuminated and empowered human vision, but also binoculars, the telescope and the theodolite.
The low altitude wind speed and change of direction were too fast to be tracked with the theodolite on this evening.
Again, it is not enough to focus exclusively on the media, for tape, theodolite, sextant, timepiece and writing and drawing utensils come together in this visual culture.
A detailed theodolite survey of spill sites and other features was conducted with reference to a temporary benchmark, which enabled the relocation of relevant sites in later seasons.
