The work content for the preparation of this CD-ROM was distributed amongst four organizations:
|
The Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine (ICSTM), London
Prof N. Ambraseys
Dr P. Smit
ICSTM was associated with seven work areas:
|
|
the uniform pre-processing and correction of all strong-motion records and calculation of elastic response spectra.
|
|
|
reformatting of all uncorrected and corrected records and response spectra.
|
|
|
the compilation, determination, and verification of associated seismological-, station- and instrumental-parameters. The work involved uniform re-calculations of seismological parameters, if required, extraction of data from existing bulletins and prompting of strong-motion data or network owners for data.
|
|
|
the development, and implementation of a relational database for the associated parameters and a databank for the time histories and spectra.
|
|
|
the preparation of the documentation and source code.
|
|
|
contribution to the database of any relevant information.
|
|
|
coordination of the work and management of the project.
|
|
|
|
Ente Nazionale per l'Energia Ellettrica (ENEL, now Società Gestione Impianti Nucleari and Servizio Sismico Nazionale), Rome
Eng R. Berardi
ENEL's tasks concerned three areas:
|
|
the digitisation and pre-processing of Italian strong-motion records not already available for dissemination.
|
|
|
the determination of site conditions and preparation of such data into formats for inclusion in the CD-ROM database.
|
|
|
contribution to the database of any additional relevant information especially from strong-motion stations formerly operated by ENEL.
|
|
|
|
Ente per le Nuove Tecnologie, l'Energia e l'Ambiente (ENEA), Rome
Dr D. Rinaldis
ENEA was involved in three tasks:
|
|
the uniform correction of records held by ENEA and ENEL but not by ICSTM, including those already available for dissemination and those to be digitised by ENEL for the project.
|
|
|
the digitisation and pre-processing of acceleration time histories recorded at ENEA-stations.
|
|
|
contribution to the database of any relevant information.
|
|
|
|
Institut de Protection et de Sûreté Nucléaire (IPSN), Paris
Dr F. Cotton
Dr C. Berge-Thierry
The duties of IPSN concerned four areas:
|
|
the compilation French strong-motion records not already available for dissemination.
|
|
|
contribution to the database of any relevant information.
|
|
|
in collaboration with ICSTM, the development of the browser program for searching, selecting and extracting of database-parameters and time histories and spectra.
|
|
|
the production of the CD-ROMs.
