Geology & Earth Science

Stereonets, ternary plots, and soil classification diagrams.

Specialized Visualizations

Stereonet (Stereographic Projection)

mplstereonet

matplotlib

Used to project lines and planes onto a sphere; essential for analyzing fault lines, crystal orientations, or rock folds.

Prompt

"Generate a proper example geological structural dataset and create a lower-hemisphere equal-area stereonet using mplstereonet. Plot the poles to the bedding planes and overlay a density contour to identify the mean fold axis."

Ternary Plot

python-ternary

plotly

A triangular diagram that shows the proportion of three variables that sum to a constant (often used for soil classification or mineral composition).

Prompt

"Generate a proper example soil composition dataset and create a ternary plot using python-ternary to classify soil samples based on percentages of 'Sand', 'Silt', and 'Clay'. Overlay the standard USDA soil texture triangle grid."
