Data from the geodetic network across Hawaii were used to model slip rates for décollement faults along the southern and western flanks of the Island of Hawai`i. Data for the observed and predicted GPS velocities at each station, the inverted slip rates along the décollements, as well as the coordinates defining the outline of the décollements are included here.

The 2021 update of the U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model for Hawaii succeeds the twenty-year-old former model by incorporating new data and modeling techniques to improve the ground shaking forecasts. Output from the model includes probabilistic seismic hazard curves calculated for a 0.02° x 0.02° grid of latitude/longitude locations across Hawaii. The new model provides an expanded suite of hazard curves for twenty-three different ground motion intensity measures, including PGA, PGV, and spectral accelerations between 0.01 and 10 second, and for eight separate soil site classes (VS30 = 1500 m/sec to 150 m/sec), representing NEHRP site classes A/B to E. In addition, gridded uniform- hazard data are provided for 2 percent, 5 percent, and 10 percent probability of exceedance in 50 years for all of the ground motions and soil site classes previously mentioned. A set of the most frequently requested hazard maps and associated GIS data have been produced and are provided in this data release as well. Additional maps and data portraying the chance of damaging earthquake shaking, comparison with the 2001 seismic hazard model, a research hazard model which incorporates declustered rate grids that are scaled to account for the total number of earthquakes in the full catalog, the seismicity catalogs used in the hazard model, and GPS velocity data and slip rates data on the décollements are also available for download in the "Child Items".

Output from the 2021 National Seismic Hazard Model for Hawaii includes probabilistic seismic hazard curves calculated for a 0.02° x 0.02° grid of latitude/longitude locations across Hawaii. The new model provides an expanded suite of hazard curves for twenty-three different ground motion intensity measures, including PGA, PGV, and spectral accelerations for 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.05, 0.075, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, 0.25, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7.5 and 10 second, and eight separate soil site classes (VS30 = 1500, 1080, 760, 530, 365, 260, 185, and 150 m/sec), representing NEHRP site classes A/B, B, B/C, C, C/D, D, D/E, and E. This data set represents the hazard curves for a grid of points with a spacing of 0.02 degrees in latitude and longitude. It represents the annual rate of exceedance versus spectral response acceleration and peak ground acceleration. Two different sets of hazard curves are available, FULL and TRUNCATED. The FULL gridded hazard curve data include ground motions at long return periods, while the TRUNCATED curves are designed to be used for return periods of 10,000 years (annual frequency of exceedance of 10-4) and less. The National Seismic Hazard Models are developed for determining seismic design values for building codes concerned with return periods of 10,000 years and less, calculated from the TRUNCATED hazard curves, therefore, we have provided these hazard curves as well as the FULL hazard curves. We recommend using the TRUNCATED hazard data sets, since they will give the same results as the FULL hazard curves for return periods of 10,000 years or less.

Gridded ground motion data, mapped gridded ground motion values, and the seismicity catalog are available for the 1998 Hawaii Seismic Hazard Model. Probabilistic seismic hazard data and maps of Hawaii for peak ground acceleration (PGA) and 0.2, 0.3, and 1.0 second spectral acceleration at probability levels of 2 percent in 50 years (annual probability of 0.000404) and 10 percent in 50 years (annual probability of 0.0021), assuming firm rock soil conditions at 760 m/s, are available. Development of the 1998 Hawaii Seismic Hazard Model is documented at https://doi.org/10.1785/0120000060. This dataset is considered a legacy dataset. The original dataset was uploaded to the USGS website at the time of publication of the seismic hazard model (1998) but was later moved over the the USGS ScienceBase Catalog (2019). The original dataset was assumed to be complete and accurate, but may contain inconsistencies when compared to more recent, actively maintained datasets.

,Data show fault-based seismic sources used in the time-independent component of the Uniform California Earthquake Rupture Forecast, Version 3 (UCERF3), which provides authoritative estimates of the magnitude, location, and time-averaged frequency of potentially damaging earthquakes in California. Fault model slip rates are given in millimeters per year. The feature service depicts the surface traces of modeled faults, which are simplified from the CGS – USGS Quaternary Fault and Fold database (https://earthquake.usgs.gov/hazards/qfaults/). For modeled blind fault seismic sources, the traces represent the map-view fault tip projection of the subsurface fault. For additional information regarding modeled faults in UCERF3 please refer to Appendix A of the UCERF3 report (https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2013/1165/).,For additional information about UCERF3 please see https://www.conservation.ca.gov/cgs/rghm/psha/Pages/sr_228.aspx for the full UCERF3 publication and supporting products.,

Uniform-hazard ground motion maps and their underlying GIS data were prepared for PGA and horizontal spectral accelerations at 0.2, 1.0, and 5.0 second period, with a probability of exceedance of 2%, 5% and 10% in 50 years, for NEHRP soil site classes B/C and D (VS30 equal to 760 and 260 m/s, respectively).
