Survey Pole on Koondi Plateau [Hazara District]. Photographer: Wood, Henry
- Scope & Content:
-
View of a surveyor seated at a plane table in front of the survey pole, which stands at the summit of a ridge. Several Indian survey assistants also appear in the photograph, one standing slightly on the hillside and holding a londing measuring pole. The figuring lying on a slab of rock, back to camera and peering at a piece of equipment, appears to be using a hypsometer to measure altitude by boiling point. Another copy of this photograph can be found at Photo 1143/1 (28). For a note on the photographer attribution, see collection introduction.
