Geological compass is used to measure orientation of geological structures, as they map in the field, to analyse (and document) the geometry of bedding planes, joints, and/or metamorphic foliations and lineations.
Geological compass is used to determine:
- Dip-azimuth
- Dip-angle and dip-direction
- Local coordinates
update 1.2:
- Calibrate the azimuth manually
