Recent CSEP Developments

Outline of CSEP Developments

• New testing region in SCEC testing center: Oceanic Transform Faults
• Support for polygon-based forecasts
• Polygon-based Oceanic Transform Fault model by Margaret Boettcher
• Two EAS (EEPAS allowing for AfterShocks) models by David Rhoades for California testing region
• SHIFT_GSRM model by Peter Bird for high-resolution Global testing region

    SHIFT = Seismic Hazard Inferred From Tectonics (a set of hypotheses/rules from Bird & Liu [2007, SRL]); and
    GSRM = Global Strain Rate Map (a global dataset from Kreemer et al. [2003, GJI], and a major project of the International Lithosphere Project)

• New T- (the classical paired t-test) and W- (the Wilcoxon signed-rank) evaluation tests (as of CSEP V11.7.0)

Future tasks

• Evaluation tests should support polygon-based forecasts
• Web site for testing center results
• Operations support
• Increase frequency of processing: from daily to hourly

Possible topics to cover

• CSEP applicability to other projects (Transient Detection, EEW)
• Archive for downloaded raw catalogs from authorized data sources (ANSS, CMT)
