Lithotheque by GeoStratum

A geological field notebook designed for ownership, speed, and scientific confidence.

Capture, enrich, and preserve geological observations with a workflow engineered for offline reality and controlled AI usage.

Turn your smartphone into a geological field assistant.

Lithotheque is the professional application designed for geologists, Earth science students, paleontologists, and mineralogy enthusiasts. Replace your paper notebook, compass, and maps with a complete, secure, fully offline digital solution.

CORE FEATURES:

Mapping & Geolocation

  • Specialized basemaps: Access global geological maps (Macrostrat) and French maps (BRGM / InfoTerre).
  • Offline mode: Download and cache map tiles to work in remote areas without any internet connection.
  • Geolocation: Automatic GPS coordinate capture (Latitude, Longitude, Altitude) and address conversion.

Structural Measurement Tools

  • Integrated compass & clinometer: Instantly measure dip and strike/azimuth directly on outcrops.
  • Stereonet: Visualize structural measurements on Schmidt or Wulff diagrams and compute mean vectors.
  • Augmented reality (AR): Locate sampling points and visualize distances/orientations in real time through the camera.

Digital Field Notebook

  • Detailed records: Capture lithology, stratigraphy (integrated ICS chronostratigraphic scale), texture, minerals, fossils, and HCl tests.
  • Photos & sketches: Take photos and annotate them with sketches directly in the app.
  • Field checklist: Never leave without essential gear (hammer, hand lens, PPE) thanks to the built-in checklist.

Advanced Artificial Intelligence

  • Local AI (100% private and offline): Use visual recognition and voice dictation without sending data online.
  • Scale detection: AI automatically checks whether a scale reference (coin, hammer, pen) is present in sample photos.
  • Optional cloud assistant: Connect your Gemini API key to enrich descriptions and geological context.

Exports & Reports

  • Standard formats: Export to CSV, GeoJSON, GPX, KML, and GeoPackage (GPKG) for QGIS, ArcGIS, or Google Earth.
  • PDF reports: Automatically generate printable PDF sheets from your observations.
  • ZIP backup: Archive all your data and images into a portable ZIP file.

Privacy & Security

  • Local-first: Your data stays on your device. No account creation required.
  • Encryption: Your personal API keys are protected with AES-256.

Whether you work in mapping, sedimentology, metamorphism, or sample collection, Lithotheque supports you from the lab to the most remote field locations.
