GPS Velocity Viewer part of Geodesy:Resources
This interactive tool allows users to see GPS/GNSS-measured crustal motions around the globe in a wide range of reference frames. The default view shows horizontal motions in the North American reference frame but users can choose to add vertical motions, earthquakes epicenters, plate boundaries, volcanic centers, or other reference frames. The tool can also be used as an interface to learn GPS/GNSS station names and download time series data.
Plate Motion Calculator part of Geodesy:Resources
The Plate Motion Calculator calculates tectonic plate motion at any location on Earth using one or more plate motion models.
