3. WP 2: STRONG GROUND MOTION DATA BASE AND GROUND MOTION PREDICTION MODELS Leading Countries: Macedonia, Montenegro and Turkey WP Duration: 12 months • Compiling the available strong ground motion data recorded by the improved seismic networks during BSHAP or previously occurred earthquakes using the outputs of earlier scientific projects; • Building a harmonized acceleometric databank by unifying the formats of the collected strong ground motion data; • Improving the databank by adding ground motion recording station information; • Investigation of available ground motion prediction models and their applicability to the region, comparison of results from different prediction models; • Final decision on the ground motion prediction models and their weights to be used in PSHA.
