Description
Now a Universal app for iOS 9.
Need a quick reference to the geologic time scale of Earth's history? Find out, for example, when dinosaurs ruled the world or when reptiles first appeared. This is an excellent reference for students, educators, professional geologists, or anyone interested in geology.
EASY TO USE:
This is an easy, quick way to get the names and numerical dates of each of the eons, eras, periods, epochs, and ages. Just select which view you want and then scroll through the time scale.
COMPLETELY SELF-CONTAINED:
No internet connection required. Ideal for field use.
TWO DIFFERENT VIEWS FEATURED:
The Geologic Time Scale Without Ages shows the names of eons, eras, periods, and epochs and their corresponding dates. Touching the With Ages button adds the names of the ages within the epochs along with their corresponding dates. Information icons appear at several points on the scale. Touching each of these icons reveals additional information about which phenomenon occurred at that time such as the extinction of the dinosaurs at 66 Ma.
What’s New
Version 1.1
This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.
Updated the time scale to use the 2015 International Commission on Stratigraphy names and dates.
Ratings and Reviews
Wonderful app
Perfect app for its purpose. I use it frequently. I keep hoping that the developer will produce a “deluxe” edition (paid version) that will let users click a geologic time unit to find out more, e.g. what defines that era, representative fossil images, history of discovery/naming, suggestions for additional reading, etc.).
Great App
Great reference to have, offers good information. I'm glad this app has been updated and works now. The scale is intuitive and easy to use while still offering interesting information such as origins and evolution of life
Great quick reference
Great little app for the basics. A quick look at the geological tome scale and a few key biological events.
Nothing too in depth. Which is fine if all you want is a reference
