@Citizen Z Is this the right place?
So i think that the horizon dropping below eye level with altitude is proof the earth can't be flat
Ok i can tell you my measurements, show you images, would that suffice?
Didd that include a theodolite, and an accurate indication of horizontal eye level?
Yes, but I'm measuring the visual horizon
That's the better one to use
wait do you know what a theodolite is?
it measures angles, not distance
sorry I'm a CE surveyor, you're wrong
yards isn't angle
i'm not using it in distance mode
No you're 100% wrong sorry
It reports the visual angle between any two things in your view
And it can tell you horizontal accurately
This explains it well : http://www.johnsonlevel.com/News/TheodolitesAllAboutTheodo
It isnt' measuring the distance
Can you SEE the horizon through the sight of the theodolite?
then you can measure teh angle
And that's all you need
It's not used for distance
it's used for measuring angles
like a sextant
A theodolite /ฮธiหหษdษlaษชt/ is a precision optical instrument for measuring angles between designated visible points in the horizontal and vertical planes.
No you're wrong, if it' sin your view you can measure the visual angle
Dunno why you're saying this
Just like i can measure angular size of the moon or sun
or an object out in the ocean
1 microrad is a typical resolution for the angle
