Application results
QuakeMap
QuiQuake (Quick estimation system for earthQuake maps triggered by observation records) provides wide and detail strong ground motion maps such as peak ground velocity (PGV) and instrumental seismic intensity (INT) soon after an earthquake occurrence in and around Japan. The map is estimated by using the published seismic records on the NIED FTP site. The result is provided as WMS service. |
