RAIS - Rete Accelerometrica in Italia Settentrionale

Abstract

In the last two years many efforts have been made by the INGV, Milano-Pavia Department, to improve the strong-motion monitoring of the Northern Italy regions. This activity led to the installation of 20 strong-motion stations in the area surrounding the epicentre of Ml 5.2, 24th November 2004, Salò earthquake. After the installation of further 4 stations, during the present year, this network (hereinafter RAIS) will allow us to reduce, in the area under study, the average inter-distances between strong-motion stations from about 40 km (at November 2004) to 15 km. All information from RAIS are collected in the web site http://rais.mi.ingv.it.
