bhubbell commented on the word gnodometer
"gnodometer" is used on page 27 of "The Life and Legend of Jay Gould" by Maury Klein (1986 John Hopkins University Press).
Klein defines as follows: "a wheelbarrow-like device with an attachment that measured distances"
Gould's gnodometer is presently (2009) on display at Lyndhurst in Tarrytown, NY.
