This is a compass designed for use by professional geologists, and has a few features useful to them.
Geodetic azimuth is when you measure in a Brunton compass from 0 to 360 degrees clockwise.
Brunton compasses are extremely accurate. This is because they are designed as specialty tools to aid people who require very precise and accurate measurements while outdoors, such as archaeologists, geologists, and surveyors.
A Surveyors Transit, a Protractor and a Brunton Compass are used for measuring angles for actual field work. Most commonly the first two are used because a Brunton Compass is not particularly easy to get your hands on. You can get one from a local geologist, but it can be difficult if you are new to the business or do not know the geoligist personally or know someone that does. This being said it is not imposible, but it is just harder. The Brunton Compass is easier and faster to use but it does not give quite as accurate of a measurement as a Surveyors Transit and a Protractor.
