description:
Dips is designed for the interactive analysis of orientation based geological data. The
program is capable of many applications and is designed for the novice or occasional user,
and for the accomplished user of stereographic projection who wishes to utilize more
advanced tools in the analysis of geological data.

Dips allows the user to analyze and visualize structural data following the same techniques
used in manual stereonets. In addition, it has many computational features, such as
statistical contouring of orientation clustering (illustrated below), mean orientation and
confidence calculation, cluster variability, and qualitative and quantitative feature attribute
analysis.

Dips is designed for the analysis of features related to the engineering analysis of rock
structures, however, the free format of the Dips data file permits the analysis of any
orientation-based data.
