GPlates is a plate tectonics program. Manipulate reconstructions of geological and paleogeographic 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.

minor feature:
Changes since 2.4:
Subduction zones have teeth in 3D globe and 2D map views.
Topological boundaries coloured by individual boundary line segments.
Instead of each boundary polygon having its own colour.
Eg, subduction zones coloured differently than mid-ocean ridges.
Topology line width multiplier (under Tools Configure Geometry Rendering ).
So topologies can be thicker than non-topologies.
Keyboard shortcuts for show/hide geometry types (see View Geometry Visibility ).

major bugfix:
Changes since 2.3: Builtin colour palettes: Added Scientific Colour Maps by Fabio Crameri. Added Elevation palettes. Can invert all palettes. : Net Rotation export when using a non-zero anchor plate ID. Previously always used zero anchor plate ID (inside non-deforming topologies). Shapefile geometries with Z (eg, elevation) or Measure (M) values not loading. shortened map background/grid for non-zero central meridians. missing pole sequences in Modify Reconstruction Pole tool. Happened after using Kinematics Tool with a time range exceeding 512 time steps. rare crash when modifying rotation with Modify Reconstruction Pole tool. Added tooltip showing full path of a missing filename when loading project/session. Emit warning (instead of error) when reading Shapefile feature with no geometry. "Failed to install message handler..." startup error message on Windows. Compile for latest gcc compiler (12/13) and Boost libraries (1.8x). Build improvements for latest GDAL, PROJ, Python and Qwt libraries: Copies GDAL plugins (like NetCDF) into package (for recent GDAL versions). Codesigns all macOS shared libraries when installing Python standard library.
