ShakeMap Atlas V4 and AtlasCat

The Atlas of ShakeMaps (~14,100 earthquakes, 1900-2020) provides a consistent and quantitative description of the distribution of shaking intensity for calibrating earthquake loss estimation methodologies, like those used in the PAGER system. Version 4 of the Atlas includes a vastly expanded compilation of ShakeMaps for consequential and widely felt earthquakes using updated ShakeMap (Version 4) software. For each event, we have attempted to gather available macroseismic, recorded ground motions and finite fault inputs. AtlasCat is the companion catalog to Atlas V4. For each event in the Atlas, AtlasCat contains population exposure to each intensity level, loss information, and summary data regarding the number of ground motion recordings, intensity observations, and availability of a finite fault.
