Regione Liguria - Level 1 Seismic Microzonation Homogeneous Zone - Open Data Liguria

The information layer contains the results of the level 1 seismic microzonation studies carried out on the Ligurian Municipalities included in the national program. The studies were conducted with the objectives defined in the «Addresses and criteria for seismic microzonation» and in compliance with the Storage and Computer Representation Standards conceived by the National PC Department. The MOPS map divides the study territory into three homogeneous microzones in seismic perspective - which represent, in qualitative terms, the behavior of the land under the effects of seismic motion and provide an indication of the seismic hazard at the local scale - as indicated below: - stable areas without expected seismic amplification; - stable areas subject to phenomena of seismic amplification; - unstable areas subject to coseismic phenomena.
