Operating guides

Start with a complete backend tutorial, then use these guides to prepare your own models, read results and expand a calculation.

• Prepare an Earth model
  • Propagation input
  • Extent and row selection
  • Material values
  • Travel-time input
  • Before scaling up
• Read, interpolate and process results
  • Choose an observable
  • Select a grid point
  • Rotate components
  • Time axis and optional arrival adjustment
  • Filtering and resampling
  • Export with meaning
• Comparing backend waveforms
  • Common physical and frequency settings
  • Displacement at 300, 600 and 900 km
  • Six-component stress
  • QSEIS Gaussian smoothing controls
  • Matching the effective source time function
  • Recorded data and verification
  • Replot the documented result
• Travel times with TauP
  • Setup and selection
  • Single-location queries
  • Custom models
  • Distance tables
