[CIG-SHORT] 3D fault slip

[Brad Aagaard]

Yaru-

Your spatial database file looks okay (I could be overlooking some small 
error). There are some things you can do to try to track down the problem:

1. Check to make sure your coordinate systems are consistent.

2. Check that the settings for the fault are what you want (i.e., 
use --timedependent.interfaces.fault.eq_srcs.rupture.slip_function.help-components 
and help-properties command line arguments).

3. As Tabrez mentioned, the slip.query_type parameter controls whether nearest 
point or linear interpolation is used (start with nearest point setting). If 
the fault is planar, you should use data-dim=2. If you use data-dim=3 and 
linear interpolation, then PyLith needs a volume of points from which to 
interpolate onto the fault surface.
