Compilation Team: Ian Davison, Pedro Baptista, Andy Page, Ian Steel and Gary Hurst

This Digital Atlas summarises the findings of more than 2150 scientific papers including our own work, and presents the geology in digital format. All digitised maps are constructed in Arc View GIS 9.2. All features are clearly labelled and cross-referenced to original authors. These are the most detailed South Atlantic margin maps available in the public domain.Our sophisticated plate fit becomes especially powerful when evaluating new frontier areas with little information, where the conjugate margin has more data and proven petroleum systems exist.
