"Felt Classic" felt report dataset
GNS Science38 questions survey to describe the respondent's experience during an earthquake in New Zealand. This dataset is based on paper questionnaires. This database was closed in 2016 and substituted by "Felt Detailed" database, currently ongoing DOI: https://doi.org/10.21420/C8AY-5173 Cite as: GNS Science. (2004).

"Felt Detailed" felt report dataset
GNS Science40 questions survey to describe the respondent's experience during an earthquake in New Zealand. This dataset is based on the previous "Felt Classic" with similar questions and new ones based on tsunami evacuation and information about earthquakes DOI: https://doi.org/10.21420/KYR8-J660 Cite as: GNS Science. (2016). "Felt Detailed" felt report dataset...Created 15 June 2022 • Updated 15 June 2022 -
"Felt Rapid" felt report dataset
GNS ScienceGeoNet collects information about the intensity of shaking that people experienced during an earthquake. There have been a few different varieties of reports in the history of collecting this data. Today, GeoNet collects Felt Rapid reports based on a cartoon representation of shaking. After very large earthquakes we provide an additional long form survey,...Created 15 June 2022 • Updated 15 June 2022 -
Hawke's Bay Tsunami Near Source Inundation Extent
Hawke's Bay Regional CouncilTsunami (pronounced tsu - nam - ee) is a Japanese word meaning 'harbour wave'. It describes a series of fast travelling waves caused by large disturbances on the ocean floor, such as earthquakes, landslides or volcanic eruptions. In the deep ocean tsunami pass almost unnoticed, but as they approach land and therefore shallower coastal waters, they change...Created 13 May 2020 • Updated 13 May 2020 -
Hawke's Bay Earthquake Liquefaction
Hawke's Bay Regional Council*This has superseded by the Hawke's Bay Liquefaction Web Services. Please refer to https://hbmaps.hbrc.govt.nz/arcgis/rest/services/Hazards/HawkesBay_Liquefaction/MapServer.This dataset is a subset of a larger dataset concerned with hazards in Hawke's Bay associated with earthquakes. This shape file contains information on areas in Hawke's Bay within each...Created 13 May 2020 • Updated 13 May 2020 -
GeoNet Accelerometer Data - New Zealand National Strong-Motion Network...
GNS ScienceReadings recorded by strong-motion instruments in New Zealand since 1966. They are updated whenever earthquakes of magnitude 4 or greater occur. Strong-motion accelerographs are located in major centres of population, near significant faults, or in different types of building structures. They are capable of measuring the very strong shaking associated...Created 26 February 2019 • Updated 26 February 2019 -
Wellington Region Ground Shaking Hazard Zones
Greater Wellington Regional CouncilThe occurrence of earthquakes in the Wellington Region is inevitable due to its location at the boundary of two crustal plates. Earthquakes have the potential to cause significant adverse effects within the Region, including loss of life, injury, and social and economic disruption. In recognition of these potential effects, the Wellington Regional Council...Created 26 September 2018 • Updated 26 September 2018 -
Wellington Region Liquefaction Potential
Greater Wellington Regional CouncilThe occurrence of earthquakes in the Wellington Region is inevitable due to its location at the boundary of two crustal plates. Earthquakes have the potential to cause significant adverse effects within the Region, including loss of life, injury, and social and economic disruption. In recognition of these potential effects, the Wellington Regional Council...Created 26 September 2018 • Updated 26 September 2018 -
Wellington Region Combined Earthquake Risk
Greater Wellington Regional CouncilThis Combined Earthquake hazard shapefile is a compilation of all "combined earthquake hazard" ArcInfo coverages in major urban areas of the Wellington Region. The coverages represent overlays of all previous earthquake hazard data.1: Area of tsunami inundation2: 20m buffer along major fault traces3: Ground shaking4: Liquefaction...Created 26 September 2018 • Updated 26 September 2018 -
Wellington Region Earthquake Induced Slope Failure
Greater Wellington Regional CouncilSlope failure includes all types of failures in slopes, including falls, slides, avalanches, flows, and slumps in both soil and rock. Failures caused by liquefaction are excluded from this study. Earthquake induced slope failures are defined as those caused directly or triggered by earthquakes. The majority of earthquake induced slope failures will occur...Created 26 September 2018 • Updated 26 September 2018 -
Ashley Fault Avoidance Zone 2014
Environment CanterburyA “Fault Avoidance Zone” has been drawn based on the fault deformation areas. Any future development within this zone will be managed to reduce the risk of damage to buildings from the land breaking or buckling during an earthquake on the fault. The Fault Avoidance Zone only includes the “well-defined” and “distributed” deformation areas, because these...Created 28 August 2017 • Updated 21 February 2018 -
Ashley Fault Zone deformation areas 2014
Environment CanterburyAshley Fault Zone deformation areas – areas of land that have been broken, buckled or warped when movements on the fault have broken through to the ground surface. These are areas where the land could be damaged in future earthquakes on the Ashley Fault Zone. The map doesn’t identify areas that would experience strong earthquake shaking from an earthquake...Created 28 August 2017 • Updated 21 February 2018 -
Kaikoura folds (2015)
