Title: Earthquake rupture forecast
Post by: jvishnu on January 16, 2024, 04:17:39 AM

In HAZ, Earthquake scenario, Earthquake rupture forecast, what is the maximum distance?
Is it the maximum distance from the site centroid to the source or site boundary to the source?

Hello,

This is the maximum distance from the site "centroid" to the source.

Please note the site "centroid" is roughly estimated by taking the average value of the latitude and longitude values of all sites. It is not the geometry centroid of the sites.

Hope this helps.
