PETROG includes patent protected technology.
Point-counting procedures vary with the needs of the project and the demands of the individual geologist.
PETROG recognises the multiple needs of each discipline and application, and the individuality of the geologist, by providing a versatile platform to suit any data collection methodology.
Key aspects of this flexibility include:
- Supporting analysis of any sample, including both plugs and thin sections, up to 7.5cm x 5cm;
- Optimising the use of the available material by allowing the easy and quick specification of multiple areas of interest, of shapes designed to suit the material;
- Setting number of points and spacing (step size) to suit national and international standards or local preference, and to match scientific rigour of point counting.
- Minimising the need for re-analysis of samples by creating a quality-assured, cross-referenced database of all relevant petrographic data, whilst removing the most common sources of user error and increasing the reliability of an investigation by maintaining a persistent method across samples;
- Increasing productivity and reducing errors by matching the user interface to the geologist’s experience, with a highly customisable, ergonomically designed interface, specified by and continuously improved by practising geologists in over 50 countries.
