In many cartographic establishments the whole of the work of the plotting and drawing stages of constructing a map projection can be done by coordinatograph... This instrument creates the two orthogonal axes of rectangular coordinates by means of one fixed steel beam and a travelling steel gantry which has a moving plotting head attached to it. Linear displacements of the gantry and the plotting head may be transferred to scales by means of lead-screws or a rack-and-pinion movement. With the aid of verniers or micrometers attached to each movement it is possible to read or plot coordinates to a least count of 0. 1 mm [millimeter] on the majority of instruments. 2, record 1, English, - coordinatograph
