http://usgs.github.io/shakemap/" class="">ShakeMap Manual</a> documents the current version of ShakeMap (<i class="">V3.5</i>). Those interested in understanding how
ShakeMap works can navigate to the <a class="internal reference" href="http://usgs.github.io/shakemap/technical_guide.html#technical-guide">Technical Guide</a>. Those who want to use
ShakeMap products & understand their varied forms can jump to the <a class="internal reference" href="http://usgs.github.io/shakemap/users_guide.html#users-guide">User’s Guide</a>.
If your goal is to install and operate ShakeMap, see the <a class="internal reference" href="http://usgs.github.io/shakemap/software_guide.html#software-guide">Software & Implementation Guide</a>. The
<a class="internal reference" href="http://usgs.github.io/shakemap/software_guide.html#software-guide">Software & Implementation Guide</a> also points users to the ShakeMap software distribution and
<a class="external reference" href="http://usgs.github.io/shakemap/_static/SoftwareGuideV3_5.pdf">Software Guide</a>. We are in the initial stages of developing ShakeMap V4 (<i class="">pyShake</i>). Ultimately, for ShakeMap V4, the Software Guide will be incorporated into the Manual; for now, it remains a separate document. </div></div></div></div></div></div></span><span id="OLK_SRC_BODY_SECTION" class=""><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class=""><br class=""></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class="">As a continuous work-in-progress, we welcome your feedback, comments, & input.
