In this detailed tutorial, I demonstrate how to perform digital joint mapping using CloudCompare and the Compass plugin. You will learn how to measure exposed planes, traces, and edges on 3D rock mass models, convert mesh models to point clouds, and accurately pick discontinuity features for geological and engineering analysis.
Topics covered include:
Importing and preparing 3D rock outcrop models
Converting mesh to point cloud for Compass compatibility
Using plane and trace picking tools
Adjusting settings for precise measurements
Exporting discontinuity data (strike, dip, dip direction)
Visualizing orientations with stereonets in CloudCompare and Orient
Understanding upper vs. lower hemisphere stereonet conventions
Whether you’re a geotechnical engineer, engineering geologist, or a student in rock mechanics, this step-by-step guide will help you perform reliable structural measurements digitally—saving time and improving accuracy compared to traditional field methods.
