URI prefLabel Definition Source http://resource.geosciml.org/classifier/cgi/determinationmethodorientation/calculated_average_orientation calculated average orientation Orientation value is specified using a calculated average of a collection of related orientations (computer generalization). this vocabulary http://resource.geosciml.org/classifier/cgi/determinationmethodorientation/estimate_from_air_photo estimate from air photo Orientation of a geologic structure estimated based on inspection or measurements on an air photograph. this vocabulary http://resource.geosciml.org/classifier/cgi/determinationmethodorientation/estimate_from_distance estimate from distance Orientation of a geologic structure based on observation from a distance great enough to preclude direct inspection of the structure to determine orientation. this vocabulary http://resource.geosciml.org/classifier/cgi/determinationmethodorientation/measure_on_outcrop measure on outcrop "Orientation of surface or line is measured on an outcrop of that surface or line directly, e.g. by measuring a particular bedding surface, a 3-D exposure of a fold hinge, a particular stretched mineral grain in a foliation surface." this vocabulary http://resource.geosciml.org/classifier/cgi/determinationmethodorientation/method_unknown method unknown use value qualifier to specify the kind of nil this vocabulary http://resource.geosciml.org/classifier/cgi/determinationmethodorientation/photogeologic_determination photogeologic determination Orientation determined based on measurements from aerial photography or satellite imagery (in conjunction with an elevation model. this vocabulary http://resource.geosciml.org/classifier/cgi/determinationmethodorientation/standard_on_site_measure standard on site measure Orientation measured using compass or other instrument directly on or at an outcrop of the structure. this vocabulary http://resource.geosciml.org/classifier/cgi/determinationmethodorientation/three_point_determination three point determination Orientation determined by fitting a plane to three or more points located on the geologic surface of interest. this vocabulary http://resource.geosciml.org/classifier/cgi/determinationmethodorientation/visual_surface_estimation_on_outcrop visual surface estimation on outcrop "Orientation of a surface is measured by visually averaging across one or more outcrops in a small area--e.g. approximating dip by looking down strike of beds, approximating strike by outcrop trace of one or more beds." this vocabulary
