Earthquake Hazards Program
Software
This is a subset of our downloadable software for earthquake research. USGS uses GitHub for all new software development, as well as open sourcing older software as time allows. For a comprehensive listing of all available software, see how our applications work, and to collaborate with us, please go to USGS GitHub.
lsforce
lsforce is a Python-based single-force seismic inversion framework for massive landslides.
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.
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
PPHASEPICKER is a powerful tool for automatically picking P-phase onsets with high precision without requiring detection interval or threshold settings.
PQLX: A Software Tool to Evaluate Seismic Station Performance
PQLX is open-source software system for evaluating seismic station performance and data quality.
MacRay
MacRay is a general purpose two-dimensional seismic ray-tracer for Macintosh.
