Points with location data can be plotted on a Google satellite (or terrain or roadmap) image right in the program.This version of Stereonet is compatible with all modern operating systems and has a modern user interface which has been modeled after OSXStereonet for Mac by Nestor Cardozo and me.
It can read and write older Stereonet text files but has a new binary format for its native file. The Macintosh version is being made available here for those users who need binary file compatibility with the Windows version. Stereonet 9 for Macintosh does not have the nifty 3D viewing of OSXStereonet, but does have Google satellite visualization. Stereonet Program For Mac Users StillFor Mac Users still on Mac OS X 10.5 and lower (Leopard, Tiger, etc.), you can download a Carbon version of Stereonet. Note that this version will not be kept up to date with the above Cocoa version. ![]() To do so, open the System Preferences and the Security Privacy option. Stereonet Program Professional Spherical ProjectionOrient is a fast, easy to use, professional spherical projection and orientation data analysis program. In 1986 Orient introduced modified Kamb contouring, triangular fabric diagrams, orientation fields, and automated structural domain analysis. Orient has constantly evolved, bringing new levels of accuracy and speed, with numerous new and updated tools, including interactive data analysis, UTM coordinate conversions, digitizing, bootstrap statistics, cluster analysis, ternary plots, fault kinematic and stress inversion, and file level integration with applications and databases such as Microsoft Excel, LibreOffice, Adobe Illustrator, InkScape, CorelDRAW, StraboSpot, Global CMT Project, and Google Earth. Orient is for plotting and analyzing directional data, data that can be described by an axis or direction in space. Examples of such data include geologic bedding planes, fault planes and slip directions, fold axes, paleomagnetic vectors, glacial striations, current flow directions, crystallographic axes, earthquake epicenters, cosmic ray arrival directions, comet orbital planes, and animal migration paths. Orient has been written to apply to a wide variety data types, however many examples come from geology, which requires extensive manipulation and analysis of orientation data. Spherical projections are used to display three dimensional directional data by projecting the surface of a sphere, or hemisphere, onto a plane. Lines and planes in space are considered to pass through the center of a unit sphere, so lines are represented by two diametrically opposed piercing points. Planes are represented by the great circle generated by their intersection with the sphere or, more compactly, by their normal. Data input formats include longitude and latitude, azimuth and altitude, declination and inclination, trend and plunge, strike and dip, dip and dip direction, and others. Spherical projections include equal-area (Schmidt net), stereographic (Wulff net or stereonet), orthographic, and equidistant projections. These can be plotted on either hemisphere, or transparency can be used to display both hemispheres. Point distributions are analyzed by contouring, and by computing eigenvectors or vector means. Statistical analysis includes confidence cones based on Fisher, Kent, Watson, and Bingham distributions, bootstrap statistics, and small circle fitting. ![]() For two-dimensional data, such as wind or current directions, circular plots and circular histograms, including equal-area and frequency polygon diagrams, can be prepared. Kinematic and dynamic analysis of fault data includes the generation of P and T moment tensor axes, tangent line diagrams, and beachball plots. Best fit P and T axes and confidence intervals can be determined for kinematic analysis, dynamic fault analysis includes Coulomb stress inversion, and reduced stress tensor inversion. Fault planes can be weighted using earthquake magnitude, gouge thickness, known displacements, or other factors. Fault data can be plotted on quarter dip histograms, rake plots, and moment tensor triangle plots. Orient is compiled, tested, and debugged on Macintosh macOS, Windows, and Linux, and runs on 64 bit macOS (10.6.5 or higher), Windows, and Linux distributions. For installation, download the correct version for your computer using the links in the sidebar (.dmg,.zip, or.tgz ), and follow the instructions below. On macOS, double click the disk image file (.dmg ), and drag the Orient application onto the Applications folder icon, or to any other desired location. If you get an App Cant Be Opened message, right-click on the Orient icon, and choose Open from the popup menu.
