Orient is used by many geologists, but is developed to be flexible for use in other disciplines requiring orientation data plotting and analysis.ĮllipseFit is an integrated program for two and three-dimensional geological fabric and finite strain analysis. Examples include latitude and longitude, star locations, bedding planes, fold axes, fault slip directions, paleomagnetic vectors, glacial striations, crystallographic axes, current flow directions, and animal migration paths.
Orient is for analyzing orientation data, data that can be described by an axis or direction, or by a position on a sphere or circle.

Please read the Users Manuals for details on licensing and citation. It is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but without any warranty without even the implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. The only stipulation is that use of the software in analyzing data or preparing diagrams must be cited in publications, presentations, reports, or other works. This software is free, but is not public domain, and may not be redistributed or posted elsewhere without permission. All of my software is compiled natively on Windows, Macintosh, and Linux, giving optimal performance on each platform. Computers and computing power quickly advance, and I have since used numerous compilers and languages. The first geological software I wrote was a strain analysis program for Win Means, using punch cards and Fortran on a 1970s era mainframe. I am, however, a compulsive computer programmer.
As a structural geologist, I spend my time studying and enjoying rock structures from microscopic crenulations to great rifts and mountain belts.
