Title:
GPS velocity field (MIT 2016.0a) for the East African Rift System generated by King et al.
Abstract:
This GPS-derived velocity field for East Africa was generated from continuous (cGPS) and survey-mode (sGPS) data acquired between 1994 and December 2015 and is part of a larger regional velocity field determination (Investigators Robert King, Michael Floyd, Robert Reilinger). The data files are in ASCII text format and were created as part of the project called Active Kinematics of Lithospheric Extension Along the East African Rift. Also included is documentation describing the data sources and calculations used in generating the velocity field. An updated version of the solutions is available at http://dx.doi.org/10.1594/IEDA/324785. Funding was provided by NSF grant EAR13-47192 and EAR13-47282.
