UCVM is an software system for hosting and querying 3D velocity models. Currently, multiple California velocity models are supported in UCVM.

To support development of UCVM, we are holding "virtual" workshops, that means teleconferences, to discuss and plan both scientific and technical issues regarding its development.

Workshop July 2011

UCVM Software Design - Framework for hosting multiple CVMs - Standardized query interface - How UCVM supports queries for non-standard models (e.g. How does UCVM handle elevation query using CVM-S4 (no elevation model)

Workshop May 2011

California State-wide Community Velocity Model (CVM) Development: a State-wide 3D Velocity Model for California

Workshop Date: Tuesday 10 May 2011 Workshop Time: 9:30am – 11:00am (90 minutes) Agenda Version: 8 May 2011

1. We plan to hold two CVM development workshops via teleconference calls prior to the next SCEC Annual Meeting (which will be held Sept 11-14, 2011). 1.1. First CVM workshop to discuss and establish CVM development goals (10 May 2011) 1.2. Second CVM workshop to discuss CVM development plans (week of June 13, 2011)

2. Several trends are pushing SCEC towards development of state-wide models: 2.1. State-wide Earthquake Rupture Forecast (UCERF) development 2.2. CISN and ANSS 2.3. Operational Earthquake Forecasting 2.4. Simulation for large California regions 2.5. SCEC4 goals 2.6. Statewide wave propagation-based PSHA calculations (CyberShake)

3. SCEC context supporting development of state-wide CVM 3.1. SCEC’s long standing scientific goal of compatible, integrated, computational structural models to support seismic hazard computational models including fault stress models, dynamic rupture simulations, wave propagation models, earthquake simulators: 3.1.1.1. CVM 3.1.1.2. CFM 3.1.1.3. Block Model 3.1.1.4. Crustal Motion Model 3.2. UCERF2.0 development 3.3. UCERF3.0 development 3.4. Release of multiple southern California CVM’s (CVM-S4 and CVM-H 11.2) 3.5. Introduction of alternative Geotechnical layer models-based on Vs30

4. Review of CVM User Communities to be considered: 4.1. High frequency wave propagation simulations (>1Hz) 4.2. Low frequency wave propagation simulations (< 1Hz) 4.3. Dynamic rupture modeling 4.4. Seismic hazard PSHA calculations 4.5. Others to be considered?
