Explore, learn about, and document your geologic surroundings! Whether you are a professional geoscientist or curious about the rocks around you and the stories they tell, Rockd allows you to explore and learn about the geologic record, contribute your own observations, and log your journey through the geologic record.
Features:
- Instant access to geologic and geographic summaries of your current location via a Dashboard
- Interactive global access to more than 290 geologic maps, with more being added weekly
- Explore the landscape with a dynamic, 3D virtual globe
- Save maps for use in the field with a built-in map caching system
- See your past location and explore paleogeographic maps from C.R. Scotese and GPlates
- View Macrostrat stratigraphic columns where available (beta)
- Explore published literature containing mentions of mapped geologic units (when available) via xDD (formerly, GeoDeepDive)
- Elevation data for most points on Earth from digital elevation models (DEMs)
- Add your own field observations even offline; tag features from Macrostrat and the Paleobiology Database
- Record strike/dip or trend/plunge for geologic features, using your phone's compass
- Track your progress through the geologic record privately, or share it with others
- See the public activity of other users and share your own and other public checkins using unique URLs
Rockd is produced by the Macrostrat lab in the Department of Geoscience at the University of Wisconsin - Madison. Support provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Dept. of Geoscience.

3.2.6 03/09/2022
This is the first update to Rockd since 2019. It reworks and modernizes the foundations of the app to set the stage for future development. Most functionality is the same, but internal data handling and storage have been simplified to provide a more stable user experience.
- Many bugs with state management and navigation have been addressed
- Functionality on newer devices (e.g., camera support) have been fixed
- Apple ID login has been added
The map system has been substantially improved for speed and expressiveness:
- A virtual globe and 3D terrain have been added, allowing new ways to explore the world’s geology atop its landscape.
- The map now makes maximal use of screen space on small devices
- The cache system has been totally replaced by a quicker and more standard implementation.
- Map code is now shared with Macrostrat’s web interface (https://macrostrat.org/map), allowing the quality of both to be improved.
WARNING: Due to changes to the internal storage framework of the app, unsynced checkins saved on the device are not retained through this update. Photos and other raw material should remain accessible, and it is possible, though tedious, to reconstruct lost data if needed. Please contact us (contact@rockd.org) if you are affected by this breaking change.
We thank Justin Janisch for his hard work to improve the app and are excited for many updates to come in the Version 3 series.
