    The document describes the Kalsbeek counting net method for contouring structural geological data. The net consists of 10 equally spaced concentric circles divided into triangles. There are a total of 600 triangles. Data points are plotted on an overlay and counted within the hexagonal region around each vertex. Each triangle is shared by 3 hexagons so every point is counted 3 times. The counted values are then used to contour the data. Advantages are that it provides a standardized method, but contouring may be approximate and results could vary with overlay orientation.
