I can't speak for geographers but I do know something about surveying. We used two very fine instruments in addition to the old transit. The geodometer shot a beam of light at a prism and measured the time lapse. The telerometer shot a radio signal at another identical machine which shot it back. Very expensive equipment. The equipment nowadays is spectacular. I think they can read the stitches on a Baseball glove in Miami from the Moon.
