Python web service for PyGplates
Hi,
Is it possible to change the default rotation model from Wright(2013) to Scotese(2016)?
The 2016 update is big change from the 2013 model:
UpdateRotationModel_MacrostratReconstruct.pptx
Here are the links to the 2016 model:
"url": "https://www.earthbyte.org/paleomap-paleoatlas-for-gplates/",
"data_url": "ftp://ftp.earthbyte.org/earthbyte/PaleoAtlas_Scotese_v3.zip",
Thanks!

We will want to provide parallel paths (essentially a clone of this service) for the Seton EarthByte model and other EarthByte models as they are released.
In reference to paleobiodb/data_service#11, the data service should return back modern coordinates as part of the GPlates service for Holocene rotations.
I have been communicating with @jonhusson about adding additional rotation models such as the Torsvik and Cocks (2017) model:
http://www.earthdynamics.org/earthhistory/Data_Software.html
http://www.earthdynamics.org/earthhistory/bookdata/CEED6.zip
In this model, however, 000 represents the mantle reference frame rather than the spin axis reference frame. 001 is the spin axis reference frame (i.e. the reference frame one would wish to reconstruct to using gplates-reconstruct). The pygplates.reconstruct() function takes an anchor_plate_id argument (default is 0).
One solution for this would be to add the default anchor_plate_id to models.json. The .json for Torsvik and Cocks could look like:
{
"name": "torsvik2017",
"citation": "Torsvik, T. and Cocks, L.R.M. 2017. Earth History and Palaeogeography. Cambridge University Press",
"url": "http://www.cambridge.org/9781107105324",
"data_url": "http://www.earthdynamics.org/earthhistory/bookdata/CEED6.zip",
"date_acquired": "2017-10-30",
"isbn": "9781107105324",
"min_age": 0,
"max_age": 500,
"coverage": "continental",
"models": [{
"min_age": 0,
"max_age": 500,
"rotation_file": "Torsvik_Cocks_HybridRotationFile.rot",
"anchor_plate_id": 1,
}]
}
that anchor_plate_id could be extracted in models.py and then fed into the rotate function within reconstruct.py
def rotate(features, age, model):
if len(models[model]['models']) == 1:
rotation_model = models[model]['models'][0]['rotation']
anchor_plate = models[model]['models'][0]['anchor_plate_id']
for rot in models[model]['models']:
if rot['min_age'] <= age and rot['max_age'] >= age:
rotation_model = rot['rotation']
rotated = []
pygplates.reconstruct(features, rotation_model, rotated, age, anchor_plate)
return rotated
The data service cannot process larger features, and will return an error that the request is too long.
Example GeoJSON:
https://macrostrat.org/api/places?format=geojson_bare&name=Wisconsin&placetype=region
Example Rotation Attempt:
curl -X POST -F my.geojson -F -o rotated_my.geojson -- https://dev.macrostrat.org/reconstruct
Error Type:
Sometimes it will return the textfile rotate_my.geojson with the following error message.
The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request. Either the server is overloaded or there is an error in the application.
Other times Bash will return a curl error that the argument list is too long.
The links to the original gplates files in the README are dead/non-existent.
Only use the 0-550 model and plates.
