520 _aPresents methods and proposes instrumentation which may have applications in large scale metrology and engineering measurement. Building on concepts introduced by non-levelled theodolites, polarimetry is evaluated as a means of orientation transfer. The non-levelled approach also suggests alternative ways of including gravity information. The ideas are viewed in the context of orientation transfer in confined situations such as mines, and of robot attitude control.
