Welcome to the QuakeT documentation!

QuakeT is an initiative of the SIGMA3 project, jointly conducted by the Électricité de France (EDF) and the GEM Foundation. Its goal is to collect a set of tools for building components of a probabilistic seismic hazard model, generating synthetic datasets, and checking the compatibility between observations and models.

QuakeT code is hosted on github at the following link: https://github.com/GEMScienceTools/quakeT. It is developed in close connection with the OpenQuake engine and other toolkits in GEMScienceTools, the open-source hazard and risk calculation engine developed primarily by the GEM Foundation.

Currently the QuakeT includes five sub-modules:

  • Auxiliary module contains tools preparing the input to MCQsim and post-processing the output;

  • Seismic source module will contain codes for evaluating models related to seismic sources;

  • Ground motion module will contain functionalities for computing ground motion intensity measures (IMs);

  • Site and site-effects module will be developed for modelling the site response;

  • Case study module will showcase the use of the tools developed within each module in a real case application;
