In geological field, maps which were generated from data whom researchers had collected which then would be portrayed onto a basic map -which in general gives information about Earth’s reliefs interpretation- and then described on a flat plane, called geological map. Geological maps give informations about geological conditions on particular area which includes rocks units and its structures. From geological map, we can obtain type of rocks, thickness, lithologies bearings (strike and dips), faults, folds, fractures, or many processes have had occured on earlier time.
