Middle East Hazard

OpenQuake engine input model to perform hazard calculations for the Middle East

Description

The v2026.0.0 model for the Middle East has been developed within a project led by ETH Zurich with the collaboration of GEM and various scientists from the region. This previous model (v2016.1.0) was developed within the 2014 Earthquake Model of the Middle East (EMME) Project. The model was natively developed for the OpenQuake (OQ) engine. EMME products, data and results are available and documented through the web-platform of the European Facilities for Earthquake Hazard and Risk (http://hazard.efehr.org/en/Documentation/specific-hazard-models/middle-east/overview/).
