Brunton, Heron Instruments, and Golden Software
Making field measurements by geoscientists and
engineers is often a critical part of field investigations and includes making
measurements in remote and difficult to reach locations and in all kinds
of weather. The locations are sometimes in the mountains, desert, or deep in the
forest. The measurements may relate to a rough field survey, measuring the strike and dip of outcropping sedimentary rocks, or
attitudes of structural features (joints or faults). One standby of geoscientists and
engineers for many years is the Brunton Pocket Transit (or Brunton
Compass). Brunton Pocket Transits
Professional pocket transits by Brunton
are available directly from Brunton
or from a number of resellers. These useful, rugged,
and compact field instruments can be found on our Brunton
Products page. A number of different instruments are
available depending on your individual need. About Brunton Pocket Transits
 Because the magnetic declination varies from point
to point across the earth, each individual Brunton is adjusted for the
location in which it will be used at the manufacturing facility.
This need precludes the possibility of a supply of pre-manufactured ("on
the shelf") instruments. Instrument adjustments require some time.
Therefore a period of several weeks should
be allowed after ordering before the instruments are actually shipped.

possible solutions, check out our "Field
Measurement Dilemma Page".
