Simulated and Observed ShakeMaps: 1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake

Simulated (left) and observed (right) ShakeMaps for instrumental intensity (MMI), peak ground acceleration (PGA), peak ground velocity (PGV), and spectral acceleration at periods of 0.3, 1.0 and 3.0 seconds. Simulated ShakeMaps developed using the procedure described in the main body of the paper. Observed ShakeMaps obtained from http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/shakemap/nc/shake/Loma_Prieta.
