Determination of 3D coronal structures from UVCS/SOHO synoptic observationsDaily coronal synoptic observations with the ultraviolet coronagraph spectrometer (UVCS) on SOHO are used to create Carrington maps of line of sight intensities and spectral line widths for H I Lyman alpha and the O 6 1032/1037 doublet. These 2D maps can then be used as inputs to a tomographic inversion routine to produce 3D models of the corona out to the 2.5 solar radius in the polar regions (3.0 solar radius in equatorial regions). The initial results for the determination of O(5+) outflow velocities as a function of heliographic latitude is presented.
