Trilobite Field

Document and classify your fossil discoveries with precision using TrilobiteField, the definitive mobile companion designed for paleontologists and fossil collectors specializing in Cambrian and Devonian trilobites. Replace unorganized notes with a structured, scientific database built to record precise taxonomic identifications alongside stratigraphic and locality data completely offline.

Key Features:
Offline Morphological Key: Identify specimens anywhere without relying on cellular service. Access diagnostic feature filters—including glabella shape, pygidium segmentation, and hypostome outline—covering more than 1,500 species and 200 formations.

Comprehensive Specimen Logging: Create standardized field cards to catalog specific specimen details, such as unique catalog numbers or nicknames, genus or species classification, identification basis, and confidence levels.

Locality & Geology Mapping: Secure vital contextual data at the exact moment of capture by recording high-precision GPS coordinates, locality names, specific formations, eras, and geological horizons.

Matrix-Matched Preparation Guides: Access specialized, step-by-step preparation recommendations for pneumatic-pen and micro-abrasive laboratory work, carefully optimized to match the specific matrix hardness of each collecting site.

Collection Progress Dashboard: Keep your inventory organized with immediate dashboard counters tracking your total collected specimens, identified taxa, drafts, and pieces currently undergoing active laboratory preparation.

Customizable Workspace Preferences: Tailor the application to your local standard preferences by adjusting dimension units (mm, cm, in), coordinate mapping formats (Decimal or DMS), and database sorting rules, while securing your records with localized JSON data backups.
