EASY TO USE:
This is an easy, quick way to get the names and numerical dates of each of the eons, eras, periods, epochs, and ages. Just tap to select which view you want and then scroll through the time scale.

COMPLETELY SELF-CONTAINED:
No internet connection required. Ideal for field use.

TWO DIFFERENT VIEWS FEATURED:
One view (Geologic Time Scale) shows the names of eons, eras, periods, and epochs and their corresponding dates. An added feature of this view offers information icons at certain points on the scale. Tapping on each of these icons reveals additional information about which phenomenon occurred at that time such as the extinction of the dinosaurs at 65.5 Ma.

An advanced view (Scale with Ages) adds the names of the ages within the epochs along with their corresponding dates.
