Summary

These data sets represents the hazard curves for a grid of points with a spacing of 0.05 degrees in latitude and longitude. They represents the annual rate of exceedance versus peak horizontal acceleration or horizontal spectral response acceleration for 0.2- or 1.0-second periods. These hazard curves are based on the full seismicity catalog and a calculated b-value of 1.5.
