GPlates
DESCRIPTION:
GPlates is a plate-tectonics program. Manipulate reconstructions of geological and paleo-geographic features through geological time. Interactively visualize vector, raster and volume data. PyGPlates is the GPlates Python library. Get fine-grained access to GPlates functionality in your Python scripts.
Features
- Load/save geological, geographic and tectonic feature data
- Assign reconstruction/rotation poles to feature data by cookie-cutting with plate polygons
- Reconstruct/rotate feature data (vector and raster data)
- Visualize vector/raster data on a globe or in one of the map projections
- Visualize sub-surface 3D scalar fields
- Export reconstructed data as a time-sequence of exported files
- Query and edit feature properties and geometries
- Modify reconstructions graphically
- Calculate surface velocities in topological plate polygons and deforming meshes
- Track crustal extension/contraction inside deforming regions
- Use PyGPlates to access GPlates functionality in your Python scripts.
