Manage stereographic projections and rose diagrams created after analyzing geological structures and process the output values in the program generating orientation plots. Importing info from ASCII files and text documents is also possible. Mean wind data calculations are included optionally.
For plotting diagrams of geological structural data, rose diagrams and analysis, the GEOrient program is a handy orientation application for you. Your data can be copied and pasted from external spreadsheets or tables displayed in a map or even from GIS map databases. The program allows you to plot your data as great circles, beta intersections or as point symbols and you can also include numeric or non-numeric information such as length, weighting factors, assay values, and other classifications for diagram options. Great circles, beta axes and variance statistics are automatically calculated for you and small circles and other girdles can be added to your data simply by dragging and dropping with your mouse control.
GEOrient also allows you to merge multiple files as a single dataset and you can overlay them as separate plots using different symbols. You can open and arrange multiple plot windows on a page prior to printing too. Your diagrams can be rotated in various ways and linked fault plane and slip data can be plotted as slip arrow plots or as kinematical axes plots. Any symbol or colored annotated point can be overlain on the basic plot and registered users can display up to 99 simultaneous plots.
v9.5 [Jan 8, 2011]
- Fixed bug introduced on 1/1/11 that was preventing .gpx files from being opened
- Changed variables to increase the no of data beyond 33766. (Now limited by memory)
- Added 3 more User Girdles to Girdle panel.
- Changed Preferences dialog to handle the new girdles and fixed bug that was not changing new girdle styles in the plots.
- Revised About.. and start-up flash screen text. Fixed bug in Save routine that was not allowing Cancels to be clean. - Revamped compiled HTML Help and made it the default within GEOrient.
- Enlarged orientation and information panels at the bottom of the screen to accommodate larger fonts;
- Added new font control boxes in the Preferences dialog to manually change the fonts in these panels.
- Fixed bug that caused crash when adding and pasting annotations to plots where annotations had previously been deleted
- Fixed cramping of statistics box against the plotted rose in some forms of rose diagrams;
- Fixed non-plotting of compass bearings if a simple axis setting was chosen in the Preferences.
- Modified wording of rose diagram statistics to indicate basis for confidence calculation.
- Added routines to process more efficiently grouped rose diagram data where the sector frequency is embedded as appended numeric values. Included adding an extra option in the File Format dialog.
- Revised the calculation of the circular median and fixed a bug giving incorrect circular variances,skewness, and kurtosis for certain types of data (axial data and pre-binned data).
- Revised Advanced Stats to report the Circular StdDev in degrees (not radians)
- Fixed cramping in copyrite form; fixed cramped Raw values given in Classification module.
- Corrected bug in Number-of-data caption for classified plots; Fixed problem accessing Appended name combo in File Format dialog
- Fixed cramped opton buttions in Classification dialog and fixed bug causing Classifcation legends plotting incorrectly as %ages.
