Instrumenta meteorognosiae inservientia I. thermoscopia, II. baroscopia, III. hygroscopium, IV. anemometrum, V. plagoscopium, VI. hyetometrum : accedunt hyetostathmica duo et exatmoscopium noviter inventa nec non meditationes de mensura quadam universali eruditis propria
A Latin treatise of 1725 published at the expense of B. Godofr. Zimmermanni, describing meteorological instruments for thermoscopy, barometry, hygrometry, anemometry and rainfall measurement, aimed at scholars of weather science. Its plates show precise engraved diagrams of glass tubes, bulbs, a barometer-like apparatus, a pressure vessel and a cutaway of a wind-vane or sail-like device in clean line work. A designer might take the spare, technical line drawings and their lettered callouts as a model for scientific diagram layouts.
