A plane table (plain table prior to 1830)[1] is a device used in surveying site mapping, exploration mapping, coastal navigation mapping, and related disciplines to provide a solid and level surface on which to make field drawings, charts and maps. The early use of the name plain table reflected its simplicity and plainness rather than its flatness.[2]
"Plane" refers to the table being both flat and levelled (horizontal).
