SUMMARY:New Zealand Community Fault Model v1.0
DESCRIPTION:
Hannu Seebeck from GNS Science will speak about the New Zealand Community Fault Model. 
Many fundamental aspects of earthquake science are influenced by the properties of fault zones. The location and geometry of a fault is a key determinant in seismic hazard assessment whereby the location and magnitudes of past and future earthquakes are estimated using geologic, seismologic or geodetic observations. 
Community fault models aim to provide consistent and broadly agreed upon representations of fault structures for a specific region. The New Zealand Community Fault Model (NZ CFM) is an object-oriented, two and three-dimensional representation of active faults in New Zealand and adjacent offshore regions. 
The NZ CFM will serve as a unified and foundational resource for many societally important applications such as the New Zealand National Seismic Hazard model, Resilience to Natures Challenges Earthquake and Tsunami programme, physics-based fault systems modelling, earthquake ground-motion simulations, and tsunami hazard evaluation. 
Key aspects of design and build parameters for the NZ CFM will be presented along with the availability of the model in readily accessible form(s) to support and facilitate varied applications. 
Access to the model and further information can be found via https://www.gns.cri.nz/cfm
