Our Treasures: Whangārei Museum surveyor s theodolite example of finely crafted expert s tool 10 May, 2021 05:00 PM 5 minutes to read The Cooke, Troughton & Simms surveyor s level at Whangārei Museum. OUR TREASURES Most of us are used to seeing the odd surveyor out with their high-vis jackets and bright-yellow tripods, even if we don t really know how the surveying is actually done. Surveying and its optical tools have a long and fascinating history, which I won t attempt to address today.
