GeoKit: Field Data Collector

The compass, rebuilt — one-step strike & dip. • ONE-STEP MEASUREMENT — Lay your phone flat on the rock surface in any orientation. Strike, dip, and dip direction are captured together and auto-lock when stable. No aligning, no two-step workflow. • TRUE NORTH — Magnetic declination is now corrected automatically from your GPS position using the World Magnetic Model — even offline. Look for the green TRUE N badge. • UTM COORDINATES — Prefer zone/easting/northing? Switch to UTM format in Settings. Live GPS coordinates are now shown right on the measurement screen. • CUSTOM MAP LAYERS — Add any WMS/WMTS or XYZ tile service (like your national geological survey) from Map Layers → Add Custom Layer. • BETTER EXPORT & BACKUP — Exports now include markers, field notes AND strike & dip measurements together, with true-north data and photos. Round-trip safe (GeoJSON/KML/CSV), reads Google Earth KML, and a new Field Bundle packs everything — data and photos — into one restorable file. Choose exactly what to export (by type and date range), and preview any import on a map before it lands. • PDF FIELD REPORT — Turn your fieldwork into a shareable, branded PDF: a title & description you write, an auto-written summary, a numbered station map on a real satellite basemap, a strike rose diagram, and every record with its data and photos. Settings → Field Report (PDF). • FIELD NOTEBOOK, REDESIGNED — A clean date-grouped journal of everything you record. Tap any entry — markers, notes, strike & dip — for full details with photos, then edit or delete it right there. Full editing for every entry type. • STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS — See your structure at a glance. A new interactive stereonet (equal-area), strike rose diagram, and dip histogram are computed from your strike & dip measurements and fault markers, with live stats and a tap-to-read pole tool. Field Notebook → chart icon. • ACCOUNTS & BACKUP — Create a free account (email) to back up your field data to the cloud and recover it if you reinstall or switch phones. Your work still starts instantly as a guest — upgrade anytime from Settings → Account. • FIXES — The black screen after saving a strike & dip measurement is gone. Back button no longer hides under the status bar, location permission now works correctly on iOS, better guidance on devices without a compass sensor, and a new first-use tutorial. Field-tested with feedback from working geologists — thank you to everyone who wrote in. Keep it coming from Settings → Send Feedback.
