Orientations of Objects
Lines: Trend – orientation of horizontal component measured
from north
Plunge – inclination downward from horizontal
Planes Strike and Dip
Quadrant notation
360 Notation
Pole – line normal to plane measured DOWN (Lower Hemisphere)
Dip Vector – Direction of Maximum Dip or Downward Inclination in a Plane

PoleDip
Vector
Strike
Which is Best?
Quadrant notation cumbersome and hard to use in calculation
Pole, 360 notation, and dip vector compact
Dip vector useful for engineering (problem is biasing of density
in graphics towards vertical – all vertical planes have
same dip vector regardless of strike)

Orientation Relationships
Strike and Dip Quadrant – NE or NW, 0-90 degrees, dip direction for NE
Strikes: NW or SE; for NW strikes NE or SW
360 – Strike measured 0-360; Strike is 90 counterclockwise of dip direction (or dip is 90 clockwise of strike)
Dip Vector Direction of maximum dip
Trend – 360 strike + 90
Plunge – dip angle
Pole Normal to plane (lower hemisphere)
Trend – 180 from dip; 90 counterclockwise of strike
Plunge – 90 - dip
