R.M. Clarke

R.M. Clarke was a British civil engineer and physicist known for his work in surveying and geodesy. He contributed to the development of methods for measuring and mapping Earth's surface, helping improve the accuracy of large-scale surveys. Clarke's work often involved understanding how to precisely measure distances and angles over long distances, which is essential for creating accurate maps and understanding Earth's shape. His contributions have had lasting impacts on fields like cartography, land surveying, and geophysics, aiding in more precise navigation and land management.
