Introduction

Unified Community Velocity Model (UCVM) software framework is a collection of software tools designed to provide standard interface to multiple, alternative, California 3D velocity models. One important use of UCVM is in high resolution 3D wave propagation simulations for California. UCVM development is an interdisciplinary research collaboration involving geoscientists and computer scientists. UCVM geoscience research includes identification and assembly of existing California velocity models into a state-wide model and improvements to existing velocity models. UCVM computer science research includes definition of a easy-to-use CVM query interface, integration of regional 3D and geotechnical models, and automated CVM evaluation processing capabilities.

New Features

UCVM 14.7.0 includes two significant improvements over the previous release:

  1. Distribution of CVM-S5. UCVM also supports a new plugin-like architecture. If you are a model developer and would like to use UCVM with your model, please read our model integration guide.
  2. New Python API (PyCVM). This API allows you to quickly and easily generate plots and get data from your models. To learn more about how to use this API, please read our PyCVM guide.

Also, UCVM 14.6.0 fixes an issue during installation on TACC Stampede.
