Short summary
When in extension, the Earth's crust accommodates deformation by breaking. Through time, faults grow into an intricate network that can be detected by changes in topography, or through modelling (numerical or analogue). This study demonstrates how the Python library Fatbox, the Fault Analysis Toolbox, can extract the network pattern automatically from said datasets and measure the geometry and kinematics of the fault network.
