New Zealand - Heretaunga Plains 500 Yr Return Period Liquefaction Severity - Hawke's Bay Open Data

This vector dataset contains the liquefaction severity for the Herataunga Plains expected at the 500-year return period shaking at a magnitude of 6.5 and a PGA of 0.42 g. Mapping was based on updated liquefaction susceptibility mapping,shallow groundwater surface modelling,available geotechnical data on the NZGD and probabilistic seismic hazard model information. Refer to Section 6.1 of Rosser and Dellow et al (2017) for a detailed description of the liquefaction hazard mapping methodology.This data can be used to understand the variation, spatially and temporally of liquefaction hazards in Hawke's Bay.
