pygplates.ReconstructedFeatureGeometry
- class pygplates.ReconstructedFeatureGeometry
Bases:
pygplates.ReconstructionGeometry
The geometry of a feature reconstructed to a geological time.
The
reconstruct()
function can be used to generate ReconstructedFeatureGeometry instances.Note
A single feature can have multiple geometry properties, and hence multiple reconstructed feature geometries, associated with it.Therefore eachReconstructedFeatureGeometry
references a different property of the feature viaget_property()

Methods
Raises an exception This class cannot be instantiated from Python
Returns the feature associated with this
ReconstructedFeatureGeometry
.Returns the present day geometry.
Returns the feature property containing the present day (unreconstructed) geometry associated with this
ReconstructedFeatureGeometry
.Returns the reconstructed geometry.
get_reconstruction_time
()Returns the reconstruction time that this instance was created at.
- get_feature()
Returns the feature associated with this
ReconstructedFeatureGeometry
.- Return type
Note
Multiple
reconstructed feature geometries
can be associated with the samefeature
if that feature has multiple geometry properties.
- get_present_day_geometry()
Returns the present day geometry.
- Return type
- get_property()
Returns the feature property containing the present day (unreconstructed) geometry associated with this
ReconstructedFeatureGeometry
.- Return type
This is the
Property
that thepresent day geometry
and thereconstructed geometry
are obtained from.
- get_reconstructed_geometry()
Returns the reconstructed geometry.
- Return type
