About GeoCompass: KML & Field
Measure geological structures, navigate in the field, view geospatial files, record observations and analyze structural data — all from your Android device.
🧭 **GEOLOGY COMPASS — STRIKE, DIP, TREND & PLUNGE**
Turn your phone into a digital geological compass for field measurements.
• Measure Strike & Dip
• Measure Trend & Plunge
• Real-time compass orientation
• Geological field measurements
• GPS coordinates and altitude
• Sensor accuracy information
• Easy-to-read field interface
🌍 **TRUE NORTH WITH IGRF-14**
Magnetic north and true geographic north are not the same.
GeoCompass uses the **IGRF-14 (International Geomagnetic Reference Field)** model to calculate magnetic declination for your location and correct compass information toward true geographic north.
This helps provide a more reliable geographic reference for geological field measurements. Actual compass accuracy depends on your device sensors, calibration and surrounding magnetic interference.
🗺️ **KML, KMZ, GEOJSON, GPX, SHP & DXF MAP VIEWER**
Bring your geospatial data into the field.
• Open KML and KMZ files
• View GeoJSON data
• Import GPX files
• View SHP shapefiles
• DXF support
• Display field data directly on the map
• Work with multiple geospatial formats in one app
📍 **GPS FIELD MAPPING & NAVIGATION**
Use GPS tools while working outdoors.
• Current GPS location
• Latitude and longitude
• Altitude information
• GPS accuracy
• Field navigation
• Save geological observation points
• View recorded measurements on the map
📴 **OFFLINE FIELD USE**
Continue working in locations with limited or unavailable internet access.
GeoCompass is designed for geological fieldwork where network coverage may be unreliable. Prepare your map and field data before heading into remote areas and access supported information while working in the field.
📊 **STEREONET & STRUCTURAL GEOLOGY TOOLS**
Analyze geological orientation data directly on your phone.
• Stereonet visualization
• Plot structural measurements
• Rose diagrams
• Strike & dip analysis
• Trend & plunge analysis
• Visualize field orientation data
Useful for structural geology, geological mapping, engineering geology and field education.
📝 **FIELD NOTES & GEOLOGICAL RECORDS**
Keep your observations organized while collecting measurements.
• Save measurement points
• Add field notes
• Record location information
• Store geological observations
• Review previous measurements
• Manage field records from one interface
📤 **EXPORT YOUR FIELD DATA**
Take your measurements from the field to your desktop workflow.
Export supported field data for further analysis and reporting using formats such as:
• CSV
• Excel-compatible data
• KML/KMZ
• Other supported geospatial formats
Use your collected data with GIS, geological analysis and compatible desktop workflows.
⛏️ **BUILT FOR FIELD PROFESSIONALS**
GeoCompass is useful for:
• Geologists
• Geophysicists
• Geological engineers
• Mining professionals
• Civil and geotechnical engineers
• Surveyors
• GIS users
• Earth science students
• Researchers
• Field mapping teams
Whether you need a **geology compass, strike and dip tool, KML/KMZ viewer, GPS field mapping app, stereonet, rose diagram or geological field data recorder**, GeoCompass brings essential geological tools together in one mobile app.
**GeoCompass — professional geological field tools in your pocket.**
