objects (package terra). The terra extension
is now added as a suggested package.velocities() function to calculate plate tectonic
velocities from the GWS. Currently only the online method is supported.
The interface is similar to reconstruct(), the

velocities on a given feature set.gws object to version v1.1velocities()Interim release (not archived/published on the CRAN).

checkgws(), getgws() and

from argument for reconstruct(),
providing explicit support for forward reconstruction. The argumentation
from!=0, age=0 (default), calculates present-day
coordinates of past coordinates. The argumentation
from!=0, age!=0 calculates shifted positions of coordinates
at different times (age) than their original
(from).NA) for the point
reconstructions, which no longer trigger an error, but are rather
propagated through the pipeline as missing values.warn argument of reconstruct(),
allowing users to switch off warnings that indicate that
paleocoordinates are off the partitioning polygons.anchor argument of reconstruct(),
allowing users to change the anchor plate for the online submodule. This
is necessary for toggling the paleomagnetic reference frame of the
"TorsvikCocks2017" model in the GWS.plateperiod (now: validtime)
argument is usable with the GPlates Web Service and the online
reconstruction method.matrix and
data.frame objects) now consistently have the column names
paleolong and paleolat for past coordinates,
and long and lat for present-day
coordinates.plateperiod argument was renamed to
validtime for better semantic compatibility with the
GPlates Web Service.reconstruct() was deprecacted
and is scheduled for omission.
gws data object that includes details about the
reconstructable features in the GPlates Web servicesgws Object.platemodel class now accepts feature descriptions
as a data.frame. This allows the inclusion of valid age
ranges for the reconstruction of feature collections.utils::data()enumerate=FALSE and cases
when the target age included NAsplateperiod=TRUE, the
target age went beyond the duration of the plates and no coordinates
were returned by the GPlates Desktop Application.
platemodel class now accepts multiple feature
collections. These can be recontructed by setting the x
argument of recontruct().reconstruct() function now matches
that of the GPlates web service. Use "static_polygons"
instead of "plates".plateperiod argument of reconstruct()
