This presupposes that the cave will never be extended again, especially in
'unexpected' directions. Let us say that North up is chosen as a map

Hello everyone -
I started this thread, so I think I need to jump in with some additional
comments!
:-)
For me, the starting point for the discussion is a project I am working on
where
there will be multiple maps produced from the same sketch data. I am doing a
set of maps in Therion, and

Bruce, you are right, but I was answering to Wokey. It looks he has several
sketches oriented to North and one or two oriented differently. So I wrote hi

In theory I try to be economical with my paper usage and align the passage
sketches such that they will nicely parallel the edges of the paper I'm
using. In the southeastern USA where I am this means that passages often
trend along NE/SW or SE/NW, so north would be rotated 45 degree (clockwise

Wookey, in Therion if labels has not fixed orientation they are automatically
oriented to top of map. If North orientations is to top of the sheet too, it

No - whatever fits on the paper best is generally best (although if

Hello everyone -
This is not really a Therion question. It is more of a general survey
question.
Therion is sort of involved in the situation, though ...
When you are drawing the sketch in the cave, is it normal to ALWAYS make north
the same direction on each sheet of paper? What is conside
