See also: pointset (base schema), lineations-data-pointset (lineation measurements).

Overview​

The planar-data-pointset schema is a variant of the generic pointset schema. See that schema for general information.

It enhances the base pointset by allowing planar data to be associated with each point.

Planar data​

The planar data is specified using two angles and a boolean flag. The angles are the same as the first two used for specifying rotations.

  • dip_azimuth angle. The azimuth of the dip direction.
  • dip angle. The dip below horizontal.
  • polarity. A boolean flag, True indicates positive polarity.

Locations​

To define a pointset, the object requires a locations property.

This property has four sub-properties, two for the planar data and two from the generic pointset schema.

  • plane_orientations - a two column float array with the dip_azimuth and dip angles.
  • plane_polarity - a boolean array with the polarity flags.
  • coordinates - an array property with the coordinates (xyz) of each point. The x, y, z columns follow the axis order declared in the object's coordinate_reference_system — see Coordinate reference systems and axis order.
  • An optional attribute list.
