    The CFM is available via a WWW-interface which is based on Mapserver and Postgresql. Contributors and users are able to access released versions of the model, or to create their own models via a map-interface and direct queries to the database.

    Follow this link to the map and query interface of CFM.

    Download readily formatted hypocenters (Hauksson or Shearer) for use with gocad and CFM's tsurfs.


    Download a gzipped archive of CFM version 3.0 which contains the most highly ranked fault representations of CFM 3.0. The file is a gzipped tar archive which has the complete directory structure of the underlying CFM database.
    Download a gzipped archive of CFM version 3.0 which contains alternative fault representations of CFM 3.0. The file is a gzipped tar archive which has the complete directory structure of the underlying CFM database and which is complementary to the preferred fault representations
    Download a table which contains quality factor ranking for most faults. The quality factors range from 1 (well constrained) to 5 (model driven) and were assigned by a team od experts. The table gives an average of the rankings for a fault. The default ranking is 3.

    Download a gzipped tar archive of CFM 2.5 in vtk format which can be loaded into paraview, a free mesh viewer for all major platforms: cfm25_vtk.tar.gz.
    Animations
    Here are two animations that show the CFM [Mac users do ctrl-click to download, quicktime will not play these avis]:

    - flythrough: a short flight through the CFM model space starting with a zoom in from space (flythrough_final_ms.avi, 49 Mbyte)
    - time lapse: A time lapse movie showing small and large earthquakes from 1983 to 2003 and the CFM in map view (eq84-03_ms.avi, 23 Mbyte). The hypocenters are taken from the Hauksson et al. 2004 relocated catalogue. Each event is shown for one week. The date on each frame is the first day of the week shown.

    MS Media Player (MS Windows), VLC media player (Mac OS X), and mplayer (linux) play those animations well.
