Data and Code for the Implementation of the Drouet et al. (2024) PSHA Model for Metropolitan France into OpenQuake.

This repository contains data files and code for the construction of the OpenQuake implementation of a PSHA model for metropolitan France originally created by Drouet et al. (2020).

The translation of this code into OpenQuake format was undertaken by Graeme Weatherill as part of the SIGMA-2 Project,  the technical details of which can be found in Weatherill et al. (2022).

The outcomes of this work were part of an effort to define new techniques for comparing distributions of probabilistic seismic hazard from different models with application to the France/Germany border region. This was published by Weatherill et al. (2024).

The original Gitlab repository where the code is hosted can be found at https://git.gfz-potsdam.de/gweather/francepsha
