FrOG Tech is aiming to start a consortium called TRACKs (Terrane Reconstructions: Archean to Cenozoic Kinematics) during 2012. It is hoped that TRACKs will consist of a number of companies interested in rigorous, geologically constrained reconstructions for specific time periods or regions of the earth.

FrOG Tech has developed its own plate reconstruction software that is based on its global terranes database consisting of more than 1200 non-oceanic terranes. PaleoArc provides the capability to model intraplate deformation and  deformation of terranes to a much greater level of detail than other reconstruction models. PaleoArc will provide the tool to handle reconstructions for TRACKs consortium members.

It is anticipated that there will be two TRACKs consortia, one focusing on the Phanerozoic and the other on the Proterozoic.
