Simulation of the 2011 Christchurch earthquake

Based on the data and analysis done by Professor Brendon Bradley from the University of Canterbury, staff from the Centre for eResearch at the University of Auckland wrote a python script to translate the data into a format that Blender (an open source 3D modelling software) can understand. Using Blender, the staff made some further modifications to colour the displacement, and added a camera path, legend and timer.
