GPS velocity field (MIT 2016.0a) for the East African Rift System generated by King et al.

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 (Investigator Robert King, Michael Floyd, Robert Reilinger, and Rebecca Bendick). The data file is in ASCII text format and was created as part of the project called Active Kinematics of Lithospheric Extension Along the East African Rift. Funding was provided by NSF grant EAR13-47192 and EAR13-47282.本东非区域GPS-derived速度场（GPS-derived velocity field）由1994年至2015年12月间采集的连续GPS（cGPS）与测量模式GPS（sGPS）数据解算得到，属于更大范围区域速度场解算工作的组成部分，该工作由研究者Robert King、Michael Floyd、Robert Reilinger与Rebecca Bendick主导。本数据集文件采用ASCII文本格式，其构建隶属于名为“东非裂谷带岩石圈伸展活动运动学”的研究项目（Active Kinematics of Lithospheric Extension Along the East African Rift）。本研究获得美国国家科学基金会（National Science Foundation, NSF）编号为EAR13-47192与EAR13-47282的项目资助。
