Description

FieldMove Clino Features:

FieldMove Clino is a digital compass-clinometer for data capture on your iPhone, designed for simplicity in the field, and optimized to use the device’s GPS location and orientation sensors. This geology app will allow you to use your phone as a traditional hand-held bearing compass as well as a digital compass-clinometer for measuring and capturing the orientation of planar and linear features in the field. FieldMove Clino allows you to quickly take large amounts of measurements, making your data set much more statistically valid. You can also capture and store georeferenced digital photographs and text notes.

As well as supporting online maps, FieldMove Clino also supports offline maps, so that you can import your own georeferenced basemaps and collect data while disconnected. Data can be exported as MOVE, CSV or KMZ files and then imported directly into FieldMove™, Move™ or other applications like Google Earth.


Additional features:

• Display geological data on an equal area or equal angle stereonet, allowing you to perform some basic statistical analysis in the field
• Draw contacts, faults and outcrops on your chosen basemap to create a realistic geological map
• A new expanded library of symbols for customisation of planar and linear features
• KMZ export, view your data in Google Earth

NOTE: FieldMove Clino for iPhone will scale up to fit on the iPad and iPad mini.



FieldMove Clino is a Petroleum Experts geological field mapping app designed for forward thinking geologists utilising digital data collection.

* The use of GPS devices and smartphones as navigation aids. *

Global Positioning System (GPS) devices are commonly used to aid navigation, having grown in popularity over the past decade. Over the last few years, this has extended to smartphones and digital compasses, which are often equipped with GPS functionality.

GPS is a valuable aid to navigation during fieldwork, although it is important to keep safety at the forefront, and we draw your attention to the advice given by a number of mountaineering councils:

“Everyone heading into the hills needs to learn how to read a map, and be able to navigate effectively with a paper map and traditional magnetic compass, especially in poor visibility”.

Using it for masters project, but crashing sometimes

There are so many things I love about this app. It’s now my primary mapping tool for everything: strikes and dips, faults, slickensides, notes, geotagged images, annotating the map.
Last field season it worked a little smoother, so I’m wondering if there’s some bugs with new iPhone update...

Some actions that cause Clino to crash:
- trying to take a picture from within the app using the “camera” icon.
- I can make a note and upload “existing picture” (it’s an extra step) but “new picture” crashes again.
- clicking on a line in map view

It would be great to upload a better base map. I’ve been switching between Gaia and Google Earth to see if the location is correct. It’s sometimes 10-20 feet off, which is an issue. Even if the imagery isn’t great, it’s be nice to be able to zoom in closer for fat-fingered drawing.

Other than that, this app is great. I’m grateful that the S/D symbols show up in google earth along with meta data and stratigraphic units. Makes my data management so much easier.

Excellent tool for being geology into the 21st century

I have used this tool for two years now doing geologic mapping for my master’s thesis and it has been an invaluable tool. The only issue I have is that the image function in the notes section causes the app to crash every time. It would be fantastic to see this fixed, as that would enable me to use this app as my primary tool. Additionally, if there could be a tracking section added to the maps portion, it would be quite easy to map large swaths of rock simply by walking the contacts!

It does the job fairly well but it has problems

It does not work with dark mode which hurts in the field because you drain your phone battery faster when using light mode, and it occasionally has a bad reading and gets stuck that way when doing S/D measurements. This can result in a wacky misunderstanding of the structural features in an area so it is best to keep a brunton compass on you and double check periodically. Otherwise, it’s a solid app!
