USGS automated ground motion processing software

The goal of this project is to update, restructure, and consolidate existing USGS ground-motion processing software to incorporate recent advances from researchers at the USGS, PEER, and others. It will standardize tools for multiple USGS ground-motion products and enable scientists within the USGS and the external community to develop and expand ground-motion datasets used in many...

Slab2

A three-dimensional compilation of global subduction geometries, separated into regional models for each major subduction zone.

STATIC1D

These programs solve the equations of static equilibrium in a spherically layered isotropic medium using a decomposition into spheroidal and toroidal motions.

strainz17: Earthquake Strains and Rotations

Strainz17.m is a MATLAB-language function for deriving the best-fitting uniform strain tensor and rigid body rotation as functions of time, based on ground displacement or velocity recordings made on an array of sensors.

PS2FF

Produce approximated finite fault distances and variance corrections given point source information, for example, Repi (epcentral distance) to Rjb (Joyner-Boore distance) or Rrup (closest distance to rupture).

SATSI

SATSI (Spatial And Temporal Stress Inversion) is a modified version of Michael's (JGR 1984, 1987) code that inverts focal mechanism data for a spatially and/or temporally varying stress field.

Quakeml

A uniform ANSS standard for seismic parametric data.

MacRay

MacRay is a general purpose two-dimensional seismic ray-tracer for Macintosh.

MacR1D

MacR1D is a one-dimensional seismic travel-time calculator for Macintosh.

NSHMP Models, Codes and Catalogs - National Seismic Hazard Mapping Project

Models, Codes and Catalogs used to produce the National Seismic Hazard Maps.

PDL

The Product Distribution Layer (PDL) is a USGS platform for receiving earthquake data over the Internet in near-real time.

P-Phase Picker

P PHASEP ICKER is a powerful tool for automatically picking P-phase onsets with high precision without requiring detection interval or threshold settings.
