Geological Drawing

Geological drawings follow an universal visual language and are mostly used as scientific tools. Rural School of Economics uses geological drawings to understand the geological evolution of a place where we work, to its impact on current land use and dominant economies, such as agriculture, oil and mining. The Geological Drawing is using Geological Time Scale (GTS) which starts millions of year before the human age. The drawings are always made in close collaboration with local geologists. Geological maps show a vertical slice through the earth, revealing what the underlying geologic structure looks like.
