Summary

[edit]
Description

Since late last year NOAA has been filming a 30 minute documentary on the 200 year history of the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey (USCGS). The movie is being shot and edited by NOAA’s Ocean Media Center under the direction of film maker and NOAA employee John Brooks. The film is being written and produced by Kate Raisz of 42 Degrees North (commercial film company). In early November, the film team met up with members of NOAA’s National Geodetic Survey (NGS) in southern Utah to shoot a historical reenactment of the transcontinental arc of triangulation survey that was undertaken by members of the USCGS from 1870 to 1900. NGS brought and used a real piece of NOAA history, old “theodolite 188”, the same original piece of equipment that was used during the original survey back in the late 1800s.

Inside the tent (from left to right) are NGS employees (and historical reenactors) Joe Evjen, Bill Stone and Casey Brennan. Outside the tent (left to right) are Ocean Media Center employees Paul Hillman and John Brooks. Also visible inside the tent is “old 118”.
