Partner Projects: SCEC

Project: SCEC (Southern California Earthquake Center)

Research Goals: As part of their Community Modeling Environment (CME) effort, SCEC is developing a geophysics and IT collaboratory that will perform seismic hazard analysis and geophysical modeling. There are multiple interactions between SCEC and GEON. In the IT area, both projects utilize the same component technologies, e.g. the SDSC Storage Resource Broker. Working with GEON/SDSC, SCEC is leveraging some of the GIS-related technologies being developed at SDSC. GEON PI’s Ramon Arrowsmith and Randy Keller also work jointly with SCEC researchers on geosciences research topics as well as development of information capabilities, such as a seismology ontology.
Reagan Moore, senior scientist at the San Diego Supercomputer Center, is a co-PI of the SCEC/CME project.
