Development of a Database for Ground Motion and Building Performance Data from the 2010 Maule Earthquake in Chile

摘要

Current information technology offers unprecedented opportunities to systematize field data collection, increase the amount of quantitative data collected in the field, and improve data preservation and dissemination. This paper describes the development of a prototype web-based data repository using new information-technology tools to classify, document, and disseminate field data collected after the 2010 Maule Earthquake in Chile.
