 +====== The Basinatlas project ======
  
 +The basinatlas.org site aims to be a resource for tectonic data for deep-time basin analysis.

 +===== ICONS Atlas =====
 +
 +The atlas of// __I__ntra__CON__tinental __S__edimentary basins// is a compilation of global crustal and lithospheric structure data for 242 intercontinental sedimentary basins, investigating the formation and evolution of intracontinental basins. The aim was to combine information about crustal structure, plate kinematics and mantle dynamics in one coherent HTML-based presentation and to provide quantitative constraints for next generation basin modeling approaches which integrate deep-earth dynamics, plate tectonics and lithospheric modeling. The Atlas was part of Christian Heine's Ph.D. project in the [[http://earthbyte.org|EarthByte Group]] at [[https://sydney.edu.au|The University of Sydney, Australia]] in 2007.

 +===== GloRiDa: The Global Rifts Database =====
 +
 +The //__Gl__obal __Ri__fts __Da__tabase// is a spatio-temporal compilation of tectonic structures related to lithospheric extension (rifting) and passive margin formation. The underlying goal is provide a high-quality dataset of structural features which have a location as well as temporal attributes for data-driven analysis of rift patterns. It is currently under development. Contact [[mailto:chhei@paleoearthlabs.org|Christian Heine]] for further info.
