ESM, the Engineering Strong-Motion Database, provides a set of facilities to search, select, download and analyse ground-motion data and associated metadata. The waveforms contained in ESM are relative to events with magnitude ≥ 4.0, mainly recorded in the European-Mediterranean regions and the Middle-East. ESM is targeted to applied seismologists, earthquake engineers, professional engineers, geologists and policy makers.
May 2025: The ESM website has been update with 9 velocity profiles and 20 geological maps for SL stations.
