'Telegraphic Determination of Longitudes in Mexico, Central America, the West Indies' details a significant hydrographic project undertaken by the United States Hydrographic Office in the late 19th century. This report meticulously documents the methods and results of determining longitudes through telegraphic communication across various regions. It provides insights into the logistical and technological challenges of coordinating astronomical observations and telegraphic signals across vast distances and differing territories. This work is a valuable resource for understanding the history of surveying, cartography, and international scientific collaboration.
