🌍🏘️ #Earth scientists engineered a digital #map that tracks how tectonic plates have shifted over millions of years.

By entering a city or specific coordinates, users can see where that location sat on the #planet during different geological eras. The tool uses decades of collected #data to explain how land masses have drifted and rotated to their current positions.
