A 1615 German surveying manual printed in Frankfurt by Johann Bringer, written by Erasmus Reinhold (1511-1553) for land surveyors and measurers, covering field measurement, mining, and water levelling. The pictures are plain line diagrams of geometric figures: a pentagon-like polygon with dashed construction lines, a rectangle divided into hexagon-like shapes with labelled corners, and a rectangle with diagonals marked by angles. A designer could take clean labelled-diagram conventions, dashed construction lines, and angle annotations from them.
