This project is a follow up project from a previous joint research project entitled "International Joint Research on Seismic Microzonation of Meter Manila" between Knto Gakuin University and Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology. This follow up project was developed from the results of the previous project. The following surveys were conducted :1) Microtremor measurements on the ground covering the whole Metro Manila area and making distribution map of natural periods of the area.2) Estimation on the relation ships natural periods and numbers of building stories by microtremor measurements.3) Completion of Bouguer Anomaly in Metro Manila by Gravity surveys to understand deep ground conditions.4) Strong ground motion observation at Ateneo de Manila University. This is a continuation from the previous project.5) Completion of a seismic mitigation data base including population, regional division of ground surface, Bouguer Anomaly, epicenters of historical and recorded earthquakes, faults by GIS digitized maps and borehole data, natural periods data by database tables.6) Showing some sample estimations of acceleration intensity map with supposed earthquakes using the database.7) Publishing of the proceedings of International workshop on the Integration of Seismic Mitigation Data in Metro Manila, November 2000, at the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology.
