Surface Displacement Observations of the 2019 Ridgecrest, California Earthquake Sequence

Surface rupture associated with the 2019 Ridgecrest, California earthquake sequence includes the dominantly left-lateral and northeast-striking M6.4 rupture and dominantly right-lateral and northwest-striking M7.1 rupture. This data release includes surface-displacement observations of these ruptures made by teams of federal, state, academic, and private sector geologists between July and November 2019. These displacement observations describe laterally and/or vertically displaced cultural and geomorphic features. Displacement data included in this release are a subset of rupture observations included in a Seismological Society of America Data Mine article (Ponti et al., in press). Our intent is to compile a complete set of field measurements [...]
