== Introduction ==

UCVM includes many utilities for exploring velocity models for various research purposes. This page describes a couple of very common use cases and how to accomplish them within the UCVM framework.

This tutorial assumes that you have installed UCVM to /path/to/ucvm-14.3.0.

== Querying Material Properties ==

One of the best benefits of UCVM is that it allows you to query underlying velocity models in a standardized format. In order to get material properties from any model, you simply need to run the ucvm_query utility. This utility is located in /path/to/ucvm-14.3.0/bin.

<blockquote>
<code style="font-size: 12px; background-color: white;">
cd /path/to/ucvm-14.3.0/bin<br />
./ucvm_query -f ../conf/ucvm.conf -m cvms<br />
Using Geo Depth coordinates as default mode.<br />
-118 34 0 [USER INPUT: Queries -118, 34 at 0m depth]
</code>
</blockquote>

UCVM will then return:

<blockquote>
<code style="font-size: 12px; background-color: white;">
-118.0000 34.0000 0.000 280.896 390.000 cvms 696.491 213.000 1974.976 none 0.000 0.000 0.000 crust 696.491 213.000 1974.976
</code>
</blockquote>

This means that according to the CVM-S4 model, at -118,34, 0 meters depth, the Vp is 696.491, Vs is 213.00, and Rho (density) is 1974.976.

You can query any point with any model (cvms, cvmsi, cvmh, cencal) to see what the material properties are at that latitude, longitude, and depth.

== Generating Z1.0 and Z2.5 maps ==

Generating Z1.0 and Z2.5 maps are easy with the included plotting scripts.

Simply go to /path/to/ucvm-14.3.0/utilities and run the z10.py script like:

<blockquote>
<code style="font-size: 12px; background-color: white;">
./z10.py
</code>
</blockquote>

This script will then interactively walk you through a series of questions. It will then retrieve the data and ask you if you want to save it to a text file or if you want to display it. Simply enter the option to display it to see the map. You will be able to save the image once it displays on your screen.
