Talk:Opisometer

Untitled
Urm .. help! I can't find any pages which could reasonably link to this one. I'm sure there must be at least a "list of measuring devices" or similar out there. This is the sort of article which is handy to find in an encyclopedia, here else would you find what one was? It surely doesn't deserve to be an orphan in the big bad wikiworld.

By the way, I've come accross informal references to this instrument as a "Meilograph". I haven't been able to find a formal reference. --Malcohol 11:36, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Okay, I've found many eBay items which are clearly opisometers, but are being called meilographs, and I've found this page at the University of Guelph from which I get "You will also require a meilograph, or map measurer, in order to complete some quizzes and assignments". Neither are totally formal, but I think are enough to justify the addition of the term. By the way the two words opisometer and meilograph are currently a Googlewhack, although not for long... --Malcohol 10:19, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
