Methodology
Thirty two time interval maps have been presented, which depict the global plate tectonic configuration as well as palaeogeography and lithofacies for South-East Asia region (Fig. 1) from Cambrian to Neogene. The presented maps were primarily generated as Intergraph(TM) design files and CorelDraw(TM) files using computer software and databases. The plate tectonic model used to create palaeocontinental base maps is based on Plates and PALEOMAP tectonic reconstruction programs. These programs take tectonic features in the form of digitised data files and assemble those features in accordance with user specified rotation criteria. The detail information about the database, ...
