The Strong Motion Database (NOA-SMDB) of the Geodynamic Institute (GI), National
Observatory of Athens (NOA) includes all the data concerning the permanent
strong motion network of the Institute for the period 1973 - 1999, which have
been published in three volumes (Stavrakakis et al., 1992; Kalogeras &
Stavrakakis,1995, 1998).
The database is included in a CD-ROM, including the
filesread_me_first.txt (a help file), info_data_processing.txt (including
information about the strong motion data processing), netmap.bmp (a picture of
the strong motion network of the G.I.) and epimap.bmp (a picture of the spatial
distribution of the earthquakes recorded).
The database includes information about the stations,
the earthquakes and the records. The uncorrected (raw data in graph and ASCII
format) and the corrected (interpolation, baseline correction, filtering and
intergration in graph and ASCII format) data are also included. The user has
the opportunity to select records according to specific queries and also to add
his own data following the same format.
