The main equipment needed to do geological mapping is:

The main equipment needed to do geological mapping is:

# Base Map: is used to show an overview of the area that will be mapped.

* Base Map: Used to show an overview of the area that will be mapped.

# Compass and Clinometer: is used to measure the strike and [[dip]] from a rocks and geological structure.  

* Compass and clinometer: Used to measure the [[strike]] and [[dip]] from rock and geological structure.  

# Stationery and field notebook: is used to record and describe the characteristic of rocks was found at the observation location.

* Stationery and field notebook: Used to record and describe the characteristics of rocks found at the observation location.

# Hammers and Chisels: is used to take rocks samples.

* Hammer and chisel: Used to take rock samples.

# Hand lens: is used to observe the characteristics of rock that cannot be seen with the eye directly, such as the [[grain size]] and others

* Hand lens: Used to observe the characteristics of rock that cannot be seen with the eye directly, such as the [[grain size]].

# Gauge: is used is used to determine the length of an outcrop or structure.

* Gauge: Used is used to determine the length of an outcrop or structure.

# GPS: is used to determine the outcrop location.

* GPS: Used to determine the outcrop location.

The steps to do geological mapping activity is:

The steps to do geological mapping activity is:

# We make outcrop observation, and make a description of it.  

* Make outcrop observation, and make a description of it.  

# We measure the position of rocks (strike and dip), geological structure elements, and other geological  elements.

* Measure the position of rocks (strike and dip), geological structure elements, and other geological  elements.

# We make a record observations in a field notebook

* Make a record observations in a field notebook

# We Determine the outcrop location by using GPS.

* Determine the outcrop location by using GPS.
