The objective of basin-fill analysis is to integrate [[sequence stratigraphy]], geometrical analysis, [[seismic facies analysis]], and lithofacies analysis to produce [[Mapping paleogeography|paleogeographic maps]] of [[Depositional sequence identification|depositional sequence]]s.

Chronostratigraphic charts aid in stratigraphic mapping by showing facies relationships across the basin in terms of time so that [[Paleogeography|paleogeographic]] maps can be made. They are also useful for structural analysis.
