Physical Object:
The physical scope of the project includes the complete revision of the Seismotectonic Map of Greece. It will also contribute to the preparation of Disaster Management Plans (DMPs) at the level of industrial areas as well as individual industrial units, fully aligned with the Authority’s responsibilities.
Purpose – Expected Results:
The preparation of Disaster Management Plans (DMPs) is an obligation of the Hellenic State deriving from international conventions.
The objective of the proposed seismotectonic geodatabase is to meet the needs of different categories of end users. By utilizing the multidimensional nature of geodatabases—offering layered and interactive information—the project will serve multiple user groups simultaneously, including: (a) government authorities and operational agencies for effective preparedness and decision-making, (b) engineers involved in the country’s seismic protection planning, (c) the scientific community, and (d) the general public.
The complete revision of Greece’s Seismotectonic Map, after thirty-five years, using new data and modern methodologies, will provide multidimensional, adaptable, and up-to-date information at various scales.
