"A surveyor’s compass is a tool for calculating horizontal angles and determining the bearing of a line of sight. The Circumferentor is the popular name for the Surveyor compass. Essentially, it comprises a sighting device, a magnetic needle that is rotated, and a graduated horizontal circle. The surveyor compass was invented as a Colonial tool and was intended for use in nations with abundant land, like America and Ireland. A magnetic needle that freely swings around a brass circle is the main component of a Surveyor compass, which is essentially a circular box." (Source: Testbook)
