I didn't understand the purpose of this diagram. This is what GPT4 says: This is a description of how to plot the orientation of a geological plane (like a bedding or fault plane) on a stereonet, which is a tool used by geologists to visualize and analyze the orientation of planes and lines in three dimensions. In essence, by following these steps, you are able to visualize the orientation of a geological plane on a two-dimensional surface. This process helps geologists in understanding structural relationships in rock bodies, which can be crucial for various purposes like understanding tectonic histories or planning in engineering geology.
