Presentation Transcript

  1. National Center for Engineering Strong Motion Data • Build on, expand and further integrate the Engineering Data Center developed under CISN (CGS and USGS) • Improve efficiency in use of State and Federal funds • Center Management Group (parallels PMG of CISN) • Advisory Committee (parallels this Group and SMIAC)

  2. NCESMD • Existing EDC reviewed over several years with SMIAC committee and subcommittees, and at engineering and seismological conferences - comments solicited, input ongoing • Current EDC has significant engineering customer base: • 1,800 registered users, identify their data usage purpose • University instructors, students, geotechnical and structural firms, and researchers • Nearly 5,000 downloads of data or station information in last 6 months • => So build on the development, growth and user input

  3. Key Elements of Engineering Data Center 1) Central Product-Generating Agency • CGS, Sacramento • USGS, Menlo Park (possibly certain ANSS regions) 2) Customers • Engineers, engineering seismologists • Mostly not concerned with geographic boundaries • Center Goal – Effective, user friendly, one-stop shopping in viewing and obtaining data 3) Data Source/Region • Credit important. Quality assurance of data, metadata, and maintenance of stations is critical. 4) Funding Agencies • Partners and developers

  4. Existing Level 1 Page

  5. Level 1 - National National Center for Engineering Strong Motion Data A Cooperative Effort CISN NEIC

  6. Level 1 - Regional Intermountain West Engineering Data Center UNR UUSS

  7. Existing Level 2 Page (Entry for each Earthquake)

  8. New Level 2 NCESMD Region MTW PNW

  9. Existing Level 3 Page (Info on an Earthquake’s Recordings)

  10. New Level 3 NCESMD

  11. Level 4 a) Information on Stations (metadata-critical)

  12. Level 4 b) Information on Station /Sensor Layout

  13. Level 4 c) Graphic Presentation of Record

  14. NCESMD – Region Interconnection NCESMD CISN IMW Other.. Level 1 Entry Page Level 2 – List of Earthquakes Level 3 – List of Records Level 4 – Record/Sta Info

  15. Existing Search Page

  16. New Search page NCESMD For Additional Search Options and International Data: A service supported by the USGS and CGS

  17. CISN EDC - to - NCESMD Super Shuttle Analogy • Currently have 6-cylinder operating fleet vehicles • To serve more customers better, need to augment vehicles with another seat, 2 more cylinders, and a GPS system NCESMD will increase capacity and increase functionality

  18. Steps Needed • Add National Web page for NCESMD • Add Regional Web page capability, solicit Region interest in hosting Regional pages • Decisions/Actions: • Level 1 on various servers, link to Level 2 • Level 2 and above to be on multiple, parallel servers (Akamai?) • Load more metadata – critical to meet ANSS Performance Standards

  19. Start-Up: January 1, 2007 Announcements: • January 2007 issue of EERI Newsletter • EOS newsletter • January 2007 Seismological Research Letters • Engineering conference booths • Add to links: NEIC, ANSS Regions
