WP 2: STRONG GROUND MOTION DATA BASE AND GROUND MOTION PREDICTION MODELS

Leading Countries: Macedonia, Montenegro and TurkeyWP Duration: 21 months

1) Compiling the available strong ground motion data recorded by the improved seismic networks during BSHAP or previously occurred earthquakes using the outputs of earlier scientific projects;

2) Building a harmonized acceleometric databank by unifying the formats of the collected strong ground motion data;

3) Improving the databank by adding ground motion recording station information;

4) Investigation of available ground motion prediction models and their applicability to the region, comparison of results from different prediction models;

5) Final decision on the ground motion prediction models and their weights to be used in PSHA.
