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.
