Description
Summary:Automated assessment of felt reports in accordance with the regionalized DYFI questionaries were implemented on mobile applications and messengers of the seismological service eqalert.ru. The new tool was tested on Sakhalin Island, which is considered as an active crustal region. We have developed a regression relationship between the peak ground acceleration and the community internet intensity for the studied area. The community internet intensity calculated from a large number of felt reports has a variance comparable to those given from a prediction equation of the physically based ground motion parameters. The given approach is considered as a state-of-art tool for the rapid collecting and assessment of macroseismic data. It may be used both with the weighted average method for generating high-quality shaking maps immediately following the felt earthquake. It is also a good way to involve the population in ground shaking measures.
