Gmt | Max Net [hot]

Maximum Net Displacement: 312.4 ± 3.2 mm Location: -124.31°E, 44.23°N (near Cape Blanco, OR) Direction: N68°E (subduction convergence direction)

gmt max net gps_data.xyz -T5 -R-120/-110/30/40 -I0.1d -Egrid.nc -Sgaussian -V gmt max net —whether as a scripted workflow or a future built-in module—provides a robust, reference-frame-aware method to locate extreme net displacements in geodetic data. By combining GMT’s vector math, filtering, and statistical tools, it delivers actionable insights for earthquake geology, crustal dynamics, and hazard assessment. Note to users: The exact implementation depends on your GMT version (6.x recommended). Always validate outputs with synthetic data (e.g., using gmt grdmath to create a dipole field) before processing real observations. gmt max net
