We created a fold analysis lab exercise using Google Earth and COLLADA models.
- •
Students are challenged to fit a semi-transparent plane to inclined bedding planes.
- •
An inset interactive stereographic net responds to changes in planes on the map.

Students must best–fit a fold axis and axial plane to the bedding data.
