United States Strong Motion Program Advisory Committee

9526340 Stepp最近对地震工程和减轻地震灾害的关键需求进行的评价建议设立一个委员会，对美国的地震强震活动进行审查并提供咨询意见（Higgins， 1993年）。这一行动是为了支持该委员会的成立和管理，该委员会将为监督美国和其他国家的强震活动提供一个协调中心。该委员会将由美国各强运动记录网络的代表和学术界和实务界的数据使用者组成，并定期召开会议。它将确定影响强震数据采集和传播的问题，确定解决这些问题的优先事项，并组成工作组拟订工作文件，提出具体建议采取的行动。需要解决的问题包括强震数据需求、数据处理、通用数据格式、数据传播机制、仪器需求、国外强震数据的获取和传播，以及委员会确定的其他问题。委员会各工作组编写的问题文件将在重点突出的讲习班上进行审查。讲习班参加者将从委员会和其他数据使用者中选出。讲习班的会议记录将作为有效、协调的强震数据采集、传播和使用的指导方针。＊＊＊

9526340 Stepp Recent evaluations of the key needs for earthquake engineering and earthquake hazard mitigation have recommended the establishment of a committee to overview and give advice concerning earthquake strong motion activities in the United States (Higgins, 1993). This action is to support the formation and management of this committee, which will provide a focal point for over-viewing the strong motion activities in the United States and in other countries. This committee is to consist of representatives from the various individual strong motion recording networks and data users from the academic and practicing communities in the U.S., with the committee meeting on a regular basis. It will identify issues affecting strong motion data acquisition and dissemination, set priorities to address the issues, and form working groups to develop working papers with specific recommended actions to be taken. Issues to be addressed include strong motion data needs, data processing, common data formatting, mechanisms for data dissemination, instrumentation needs, acquisition and dissemination of foreign strong motion data, and other issues to be identified by the committee. Issue papers developed by working groups of the committee will be reviewed in focused workshops. Workshop participants will be selected from the committee and additional data users. The proceedings of the workshops will serve as guidelines for effective, coordinated strong motion data acquisition, dissemination and usage. ***
