This prooposal has the specific objective to collect perishable data on injuries and related building damage for the recent Nisqually earthquake. The data collected under the proposed effort would enhance existing injury and damage databases compiled for recent U.S. earthquakes (the Whittier Narrows, Loma Prieta and Northridge earthquakes), and will build on current NSF-funded research (CMS 99-00062 & CMS 00-85314) to establish a standardized earthquake injury categorization scheme, intended to help refine casualty estimation models for earthquake response and mitigation. Injury data will be collected from hospital emergency department logs and abstracted from hospital patient records. Information on building damage and repair cost is collected by various local jurisdictions, and is often aggregated at the county and state level. Detailed data may be available from a number of communities, and this data will be sought for correlation to data on earthquake-related injuries. This information will be matched by address to injury locations to help identify structure-related injury risk factors. Future work for which additional funding will be sought includes: analysis of trends found in the building damage/injury data: cross-sectional survey of the population and injury cases for a case-control study of injuries; geographic analysis of injuries and building damage; integration into modeling for casualty estimation.

本计划的具体目标是收集关于最近尼斯夸利地震中受伤和相关建筑物损坏的易腐数据。 在拟议的努力下收集的数据将增强为最近的美国地震（惠蒂尔海峡，洛马普列塔和北岭地震）编制的现有伤害和损害数据库，并将建立在目前NSF资助的研究（CMS 99-00062& CMS 00-85314）的基础上，以建立标准化的地震伤害分类方案，旨在帮助完善地震响应和减灾的伤亡估计模型。 损伤数据将从医院急诊室日志中收集，并从医院患者记录中提取。 有关建筑物损坏和维修费用的信息由各个地方管辖区收集，通常在县和州一级汇总。 一些社区可能提供详细数据，将设法将这些数据与地震相关伤害数据联系起来。 这些信息将通过地址与受伤地点进行匹配，以帮助识别与结构相关的伤害风险因素。 未来的工作，将寻求额外的资金包括：在建筑物损坏/伤害数据中发现的趋势分析：人口和伤害病例的病例对照研究伤害的横截面调查;伤害和建筑物损坏的地理分析;集成到伤亡估计建模。
