How levelling equipment were used for surveying and setting out

Learn how levelling equipment can be used for surveying and setting out. Also, I demonstrate how to measure distances using levelling equipment. This video covers how levelling equipment was initially used for surveying and setting out before Theodolites and Total Stations were invented. You can still use this method for level surveying large areas with relative precision regarding where survey points were taken. This video is part of a series of videos by Finchley College for surveying courses.
