- Abstract:
-
There has been a significant increase in the understanding
of earthquake hazards in the Pacific Northwest. It is now
known that Oregon may experience damaging earthquakes much
larger than any that have past. Planning to respond to
earthquake disasters and strengthening homes, buildings and
power, water, communication and transportation lifelines
can greatly reduce the impact of an earthquake. These
measures should be based on the best possible forecast of
the amount and distribution of future earthquake damage.
Earthquake hazard maps such as those introduced from this
data set provide such a forecast.
- Purpose:
-
This data set identifies those areas in selected Oregon
communities that will suffer more damage, relative to
others, during a damaging earthquake. The analysis is based
on the behavior of the soils, and does not depict the
absolute earthquake hazard at any particular site.
