TITLE GPLATES: FREE SOFTWARE FOR TECTONIC RECONSTRUCTION AND SPATIO-<br />
TEMPORAL DATA ANALYSIS<br />
LOCATION CONGRESS VENUE<br />
ORGANISERS The University of Sydney<br />
PRESENTERS Dietmar Muller ; Simon Williams; Christian Heine; Maria Seton; Joanne Whittaker &<br />
Thomas Landgrebe.<br />
SUMMARY GPlates (www.gplates.org) is an open-source and platform-independent software<br />
enabling the interactive manipulation and visualization of plate-tectonic<br />
reconstructions. The course is designed as an introduction to core GPlates<br />
functionality, based on tutorials freely available on the internet. Users will learn how<br />
to build and alter plate models, import GIS data and digitise features, the loading,<br />
“cookie-cutting” and age-coding of raster files, as well as the exporting of data for<br />
animations or for publication-quality figure generation. Advanced topics such as<br />
linking of plate reconstructions to geodynamic models, plate deformation and spatiotemporal<br />
data mining will be touched upon.<br />
