A surveyor's wheel, also known as a measuring wheel or survey wheel, is a tool used by surveyors, landscapers, and construction professionals to measure distances over land. It consists of a large wheel mounted on a handle, which can be pushed or pulled along the ground. As the wheel rolls, it counts the number of rotations, which can be converted into a measurement of distance.
