Have you ever found yourself staring at a 3D geological structure and wondered, "How am I supposed to analyze this in two dimensions?" Welcome to the world of STEREONET —one of geology's most elegant solutions to a seemingly impossible problem.      If you're preparing for IIT JAM, GATE, or CSIR NET, or if you're simply curious about how geologists make sense of complex rock structures, you're in the right place. The stereonet isn't just a tool—it's a way of thinking about rocks and structures that can transform your entire understanding of structural geology. Let me walk you through this fascinating tool, step by step. What Exactly Is a Stereonet? (And Why Should You Care?)      Imagine you're holding a perfect crystal or a folded rock layer. The structure exists in three dimensions—length, width, and height. But here's the problem: you need to analyze it, measure it, compare it with other structures, and communicate your findings.
