The developers of GPlates

---

GPlates is developed by an international team of scientists and professional software developers at:

• the EarthByte Project (part of AuScope) in the School of Geosciences at the University of Sydney (under the direction of Dietmar Müller)
• the Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences (GPS) at CalTech (under the direction of Michael Gurnis)
• the Center for Geodynamics at the Norwegian Geological Survey (NGU) (under the direction of Trond Torsvik).

Collaborating scientists at the University of Sydney, the Norwegian Geological Survey and CalTech have also been compiling sets of global data for plate boundaries, continental-oceanic crust boundaries, plate rotations, absolute reference frames and dynamic topography.
