Abstract: Given a bounded domain $M$ in $mathbb{R}^n$ with a conformally Euclidean metric $g=ho,d{x}^2$, in this paper we consider the inverse problem of recovering a semigeodesic neighborhood of a domain $GammasubsetpartialM$ and the conformal factor $ho$ in the neighborhood from the travel time data (defined below) and the Cartesian coordinates of $Gamma$. We develop an explicit reconstruction procedure for this problem. The key ingredient is the relation between the reconstruction and a Cauchy problem of the conformal Killing equation.
