 Both the source models MOST and ... require the input of bathymetric data desribing the geometry of the sea floor. The data used ...
-
-The URS code employed 5 nested grids and their creation and data source are described below:
-        
-        DBDB2 2 minute of arc grid from the US Naval Research Labs.
-
-        This grid was also interpolated to 27 sec of arc and used in a nested grid scheme.

-        Indian Ocean 27 sec of arc grid created by:
-
-        Interpolating the DBDB2 2 minute of arc grid.
-        In the region where the 9 sec grid sits the data was cut out and replaced by the 9 sec data.
-        Any points that deviated from the general trend near the boundary were deleted.
-        The data was then re-gridded.
-
-
-        Andaman Sea 9 sec of arc grid created by:
-
-        Sub-sampling the 3 sec of arc grid from NOAA.
-        In the region where the 3 sec grid sits the data was cut out and replaced by the 3 sec data.
-        Any points that deviated from the general trend near the boundary were deleted.
-        The data was then re-gridded.

-        Thailand off-shore 3 sec of arc grid created by:
-
-        cropping a much larger 3 sec of arc grid covering the whole of the Andaman Sea which itself was based on Thai charts 45 and 362.
-
-        This grid was obtained from NOAA.
-
-        In the region where the 1 sec grid sits the data was cut out and replaced by the 1 sec data.
-        Any points that deviated from the general trend near the boundary were deleted.
-        The data was then re-gridded.

-        elevation data contained in a GIS of Patong Bay supplied by Niran Chaimanee, Geo-environment Sector Manager, CCOP T/S, Bangkok.

+\subsection (datasets and gridding)
+
+Gridded data sets used:
+
+DBDB2 2 minute of arc grid from the US Naval Research Labs.
+This grid was also interpolated to 27 sec of arc and used in a nested grid scheme.
+
+Indian Ocean 27 sec of arc grid created by:
+Interpolating the DBDB2 2 minute of arc grid.
+In the region where the 9 sec grid sits the data was cut out and replaced by the 9 sec data.
+Any points that deviated from the general trend near the boundary were deleted.
+The data was then re-gridded.
+
+Andaman Sea 9 sec of arc grid created by:
+Sub-sampling the 3 sec of arc grid from NOAA.
+In the region where the 3 sec grid sits the data was cut out and replaced by the 3 sec data.
+Any points that deviated from the general trend near the boundary were deleted.
+The data was then re-gridded.
+
+Thailand off-shore 3 sec of arc grid created by:
+cropping a much larger 3 sec of arc grid covering the whole of the Andaman Sea which itself was based on Thai charts 45 and 362.
+This grid was obtained from NOAA.
+In the region where the 1 sec grid sits the data was cut out and replaced by the 1 sec data.
+Any points that deviated from the general trend near the boundary were deleted.
+The data was then re-gridded.
+
+Patong Bay 1 second of arc grid created from:
+elevation data contained in a GIS of Patong Bay supplied by Niran Chaimanee, Geo-environment Sector Manager, CCOP T/S, Bangkok.
+Digitised Thai Navy bathymetry chart no 358.
+
+The sub-sampling of larger grids was performed by using \bold resample \endbold  a GMT program.
+The gridding of data was performed using \bold Intrepid \endbold a commercial geophysical processing package developed by Intrepid Geophysics.
+The gridding scheme was nearest neighbour followed by minimum curvature akima spline smoothing.
+
+\subsection (earthquake source model)
+
+The earthquake source model of Chlieh was adopted to generate the tsunami simulation. This model was created by carefull inversion of the seismic
+data and fits both coseismic, tsunami and GPS data in the Andaman Sea well.
+
+\subsection (tsunami propagation)
+
+To to generate and propagate the tsunami the URS code was used. This program solves the shallow water equations using the finite difference method.
+It can also be used in a nexted grid scheme and does on-shore inundation.
