- ModelAssembler is an open-source, Java-based velocity-model
gridding code that can integrate scattered and heterogeneous geophysical data
sets.
Beta-test the MA-CME 5.0.2 GUI: The ModelAssembler Community Modeling
Environment now has a tutorial graphical interface that sets up the input
file for any E3D run. Get the
192-kb ZIP distribution and run it with the commands
``unzip MA502.zip; cd ma; java CME &''. Basin and geotechnical
data input files for Nevada, Los Angeles, and Wellington are available from
www.seismo.unr.edu/hazsurv/CME/data/ .
