Thanks to this, besides avoiding the rotation of the drawing paper
for small component do, some small graphic or numerical aereo-
triangulations can be made.
For the employment of the instrument in plotting of oblique or
terrestrial aereophotographs taken with phototheodolite, the general
bridge can be rotated at will. As in this case it is necessary to set
the components by and b% of the base, there are provided accessory
devices to apply to the third carriage of the coordinatograph.
Q COORDINATOGRAPH.
For a given magnification between photogram and topographic
map is intuitive that the final precision will be greater, the larger
the magnification between the photogram and the optical model,
instead of between the optical model and the map.
In fact it is exactly by means of the scales of the coordinatograph
that plotting is accomplished, by means of the measurement of
the coordinates of the control points, instead of relying on the
graphic precision of the map. The Stereosimplex II/c, like all other
instruments constructed by Officine Galileo, has been conceived
by Santoni to manufacture an optical model at very large scale.
