Taiwan Hazard

OpenQuake engine input model to perform hazard calculations for Taiwan

Description

The v2026.0.0 hazard model for Taiwan has been developed within the Taiwan Earthquake Model initiative, a collaboration between various Taiwanese research institutions. It has been natively developed in the OpenQuake Engine format. This model will soon be available for open download following publication. The version v2015.0.0 was used for the initial release of the 2018 Global Maps. An updated model (v2020.0.1) was developed in collaboration between GEM and TEM, and used in the computation of the 2023 release of the updated Global Maps.
