Getting the most out of field sketches Maggie Williams

Aims To show students how to make relevant field sketches To encourage use of appropriate technical terms to describe what is seen & sketched in the field To help students recognise relationships between geology & topography To help students revise basic field phenomena

Why are field sketches important? Record field observations & measurements Give a summary of key structural & geological features Help analyses of photographs taken in the field Provide useful memory aids Here today – gone tomorrow?

Making a field sketch You don’t have to: Be an artist Produce a masterpiece or work of art You do have to: Produce a simple outline drawing or summary diagram Allow enough time to make a sketch Keep work neat & tidy

The wrong way?

The right way?

Stages in drawing a field sketch 1. Choose the view you wish to record

2. Choose a scale & draw lines to divide your page

3. Draw in the skyline & foreground in your field of view

4. Draw in lines showing the main structural & geological features

5. Draw in features such as changes in slope, vegetation & rock type 5. Draw in features such as changes in slope, vegetation & rock type. Hint: Leave out details of minor features – best recorded in smaller sketches highlighting details.

6. Add labels

7. Check list Date Locality & National Grid Reference Title Direction of view Measurements/scale Rock types Dip & strike Types of structures (sedimentary, tectonic) Hint: Avoid vague terms
