The geodetic protocol is the geo-centric analogue of the universal tetrad protocol specifying geophysical field dynamics through ‘geodetic’ (tetrad) moments (phase-shift modulations) of the tetralogue automaton state.
The geodetic protocol enumerates the geoidal spectra in terms of Alpha Wave-Shift (‘perdurant’ y-axis) and Beta Phase-Shift (‘endurant’ x-axis) to model the tetralogy framework of Abiogenesis – the applied science of planetary ‘emergence’ (c.f. 'Abiogenesis Matrix'). Delimited by the geodetic gradient, the geodetic protocol illuminates abiotic and biotic lateralisations of the ‘spectral crux’, the intersection of physical and meta-physical dimensions of emergent life, and a bio-systems quaternary structuration primogenital to planetary geo-dynamics.

Geodetic Hemispherics
Geodetic hemispherics are duplex operands of the geoidal hypersphere which bisect at horizontal (celestial) and vertical (cerebral) cross-sections.
Celestial Hemipsherics
Bisecting the geoid along the primary circle of latitude (equator), the celestial hemispherics are constituted by a physical realm north of the Azimuthal plane, and a meta-physical realm south of the Azimuthal plane. Celestial hemispherics are omniscient and denote principles and precepts of geodesy and astrobiology. Homologous to the irregular, equipotential surface of the planetary geoid, the celestial hemispherics are asymmetrical along the cleave of physical and meta-physical.

Cerebral Hemispherics
Delineating the geoid at the longitudinal fissure (lateralization/Prime Meridian), the cerebral hemispherics refer to a biotic realm (biological 'fast' carbon cycle) left of the Meridional plane, and an abiotic realm (geological 'slow' carbon cycle) right of the Meridional plane. Cerebral hemispherics are axiological to bio-systems predicates of abiogenesis (the geodetic gradient) and compel the ‘living planet’ impetus toward ‘sapience’ (intelligence) and ‘sentience’ (sensory awareness). Similarly analogous to the lateralization of the human brain and the markedly asymmetrical cyto-architecture of the cerebral cortex, the cerebral hemispherics are asymmetrically integrated through the anthology of biota and abiota.
Geodetic Gradient
The geodetic gradient specifies the thermodynamic variables of the ‘native’ state (geodetic moment) binary in continuous time-scales to the greater ‘quantum’ state. The thermodynamic gradient (transformation system) is constituted by cumulative sub-functions (thermodynamic processes) of the geodetic moments which are spatio-temporal circumfusions of matter and energy through the geoidal eco-systems.

Geodetic Moments
The Geodetic Moments are direct homologues of the Tetrad Moments elucidated in the Tetrad Protocol. Geodetic Moments are also resonant of modulations of the electro-magnetic spectra.

Quaternary Structuration
In the fourth (t3/tz tetrad) moment, the quaternary structuration attains a fulcrum of the n-dimensional hyper-octant polytope which is a threshold ‘native’ (quantum) state and a temporal ‘inter-regnum’ (plural interregna) of the bio-chemical speciation. Hence, a quinary iteration of the geodetic protocol invokes the automaton operator switch, a bio-systems rotation (recursion) along the boundaries of the neo-native state such as to infer implicit selectional generativity of the ‘interregnates’.
Quaternary structuration thus identifies automaton pre-determinants ingrained into the compass of the Geodetic Moments.

Geodetic 3: Discriminative State, a dependent probability distribution conditional to a stochastic probability density function.
Geodetic 4: Generative State, a joint probability distribution and a conditional probability density function.
The quinary iteration is homologous to the scalar identity as a projectile through vector space, effectively depicted by re-entry to a first (t0/tΩ tetrad) moment in a higher-order ‘eco-system’.
