A key input for probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) is geologic slip rate data. Here, we compile all geologic slip rates that are reportedly used in U.S. National Seismic Hazard Map (NSHM) releases from 1996, 2002, 2007, 2008, and 2014. Although a new NSHM was released in 2018, no changes were made in geologic slip rate data used. The geologic slip rates are collated from existing NSHM reports and documentation, and no new data are reported herein. The geologic slip rates are coupled with the most up-to-date fault geometries utilized for NSHM calculations, and the data are presented spatially as a shapefile (SHP), in keyhole markup language (KML) and geoJSON. A readme file accompanies this dataset explaining details of the data compilation. This data release corrects minor typographical errors in the initial compilation of geologic slip rates used in U.S. National Seismic Hazard Models (1996-2014). The original compilation (version 1, published August 2020) is now superseded by this edited compilation (version 2, published February 2022). To compare changes between release, a 'Version Changes' file is included in this Data Release.

A key input for probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) is geologic slip rate data. Yet, no single database exists to house all geologic slip rate data used in these calculations.

This Data Release contains preliminary versions of two related databases: 1) A fault sections database (“NSHM23_FSD_v2”), which depicts the geometry of faults capable of hosting independent earthquakes, and 2) An earthquake geology site information database (“NSHM23_EQGeoDB_v2”), which contains fault slip-rate constraints at points. These databases were prepared in anticipation of updates to the National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) 2023. Fault-specific geologic parameters for the NSHM have not been updated since the 2014 NSHM release. The datasets include the states of Washington, Oregon, California, Idaho, Nevada, Arizona, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico and Texas. Datasets containing fault information for Alaska and the Central and Eastern United States will be the subject of future efforts. These databases are provided as geospatial data (e.g., .SHP and .GeoJSON file formats) and tables (.CSV or .TXT format). Please note: these databases are updated as of February 2022 (version 2), which supersede the databases release in January 2021 (version 1).

This Data Release contains version 3.0 of two related earthquake geology databases for use in the 2023 U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model. The databases are: 1) A fault sections database (“NSHM23_FSD_v3”), which depicts the geometry of faults capable of hosting independent earthquakes, and 2) an earthquake geology site information database (“NSHM23_EQGeoDB_v3”), which contains fault slip rate constraints at points. These databases cover the 12 western U.S. states: Washington, Oregon, California, Idaho, Nevada, Arizona, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico and Texas. Datasets containing crustal fault information for Alaska and the central and eastern United States were prepared by Bender and others, 2021 and Thompson Jobe and others, 2023 in separate efforts. The two databases are broken into separate child items from this landing page. The databases are provided as geospatial data (.SHP, .KML, and GeoJSON file formats) and tables (.CSV format). Reference information, including change log, version notes, and a README, are included as "Attached Files" below this Summary. Versioning These databases are updated as of December 2023 (version 3.0), which supersede the databases release in February 2022 (version 2.0) and the January 2021 (version 1.0) preliminary datasets. After significant testing by many user groups, this version 3.0 data release contains minor changes. The specific changes made in the fault sections database (FSD) from version 2.0 (2022) to version 3.0 (2023; this release) are outlined in "NSHM23_FSD_v2-v3_VersionChanges.txt." The changes to the EQGeoDB involve fixing typos and further populating the reference list to include UCERF3 references; the authors acknowledge Scott Marshall (Appalachian State University) for uncovering these additional references. Note on the Cheraw fault: At the time of original compilation (2020-2021), the Cheraw fault of Colorado was included in the western U.S. fault sections database. During model implementation, the Cheraw fault was instead treated as a central and eastern U.S. fault. To maintain consistency with earlier releases, we retain the Cheraw fault geometry and attributes in this table. For more information, please review Shumway and others., in press manuscript about CEUS fault implementation. For more information on how these datasets were compiled, please refer to our manuscript publication, Hatem and others, 2022.

The U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) relies on deformation models to assign slip rates along active faults used in the earthquake rupture forecast. Here, we present the geologic deformation model results in tabular form. We provide model outputs in multiple file formats, as well as the polygons used in analyses throughout the geologic deformation model process.The data presented herein are in support of the following interprative manuscript: Hatem, A.E., Reitman, N.G., Briggs, R.W., Gold, R.D., Thompson Jobe, J.A., Burgette, R.J., (2022) Western US geologic deformation model for use in the U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model 2023, Seismological Research Letters, submitted (IP-140865).
