Surveying is commonly defined as the art of measuring, hying out and dividing land. The similar but more Comprehensive art of geodesy applies to the earth itself, as indicated by the etymology of the word, which is derived from. γη, the earth and δαιω, I divide. Its objects are, the determination of the form and dimensions of the earth and of its different portions; the continents and islands with their lakes, rivers, mountains, civil divisions, etc. Its processes, like those of astronomy, upon which, indeed, it is to a considerable extent dependent, require instruments. of a high degree of precision and mathematical computations of great refinement.
