Image Brunton.JPG thumb 300px A standard Brunton Geo, used commonly by geologists A Brunton compass , properly known as the Brunton Pocket Transit , is a type of precision compass made by Brunton, Inc. of Riverton, WY Riverton , Wyoming . The instrument was patented in 1894 by a Canadian born Colorado geologist named David W. Brunton. Unlike most modern compasses, the Brunton Pocket Transit utilizes magnetic induction damping rather than fluid to damp needle oscillation. Although Brunton Inc. makes many other types of magnetic compasses, the Brunton Pocket Transit is a specialized instrument used widely by those needing to make accurate degree and angle measurements in the field. These people are primarily geologist s, but archaeologist s, environmental engineer s, and surveying surveyor s also make use of the Brunton s capabilities. The United States Army has adopted the Pocket Transit as the M2 Compass for use by crew served artillery . The Pocket Transit may be adjusted for Earth s magnetic field declination angle according to one s location on the Earth. It is used to get directional degree measurements azimuth through use of the Earth s magnetic field . Holding the compass at waist height, the user looks down into the mirror and lines up the target, needle, and guide line that is on the mirror. Once all three are lined up and the compass is level, the reading for that azimuth can be made. Arguably the most frequent use for the Brunton in the field is the calculation of the strike ... s eye level the compass along the plane being measured.
