Naming Conventions

See the Database Schema for a visual of
the organization of the following geodatabase.

Bay Area

bay_area = Counties within the San Francisco Bay Area: Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Solano and Sonoma Counties
CGS_to_per = Counties in bay area with the information on the percentage of land within a designated California Geologic Survey (CGS) Hazard Zone

General California

california_allfaults = All fault lines within the state of California
city_09 = Polygon dataset of cities in California with area and classifcation information and
county_california = Polygon dataset of counties within the state of California
E_loss = Californa counties and their associated economic losses due to earthquakes
HU_est_ca_00_08 = Housing Unit counts for each California county for the years 2000 through 2008
state_california = Simple shapefile of the state of California

Humboldt

cities_liqu_clip = city areas in liquefaction zone
cities_slstb1_clip = city areas in low slope instability zone
cities_slstb2_clip = city areas in moderate slope instability zone
cities_slstb3_clip = city areas in high slope instability zone
community_pts = Humboldt county community points like golf courses, schools, hospitals, airports, etc.
humb_cities_09 = Polygon shapefile of Humboldt County cities
humboldt_county = Polygon dataset of Humboldt County only
humboldt_faults = Fault lines within the extent of Humboldt County
liqu_Merge = All liquefaction potential areas
saf_zones = Humboldt bay area slope instability areas
safe_zones_liqu = Humboldt bay area liquefaction areas
safzaliqu_2_Merge = All moderate slope instability areas
safzn_1_Merge = All low slope instability areas
safzn_3_Merge = All high slope instability areas
slopestab5sp = Slope stability and liquefaction information for bay and rural areas of Humboldt County

ShakeMap

ca_county_shakeclip = California counties cliped to the extent of the shakemap
ca_sty_clip_HU03_05 = Housing Unit data for only counties affect by 2004 earthquake: Fresno, Kern, Kings, Monterey, San Benito, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, and Tulare Counties
ca_faults_shakeclip = California faults in the shakemap area
cities_outof_shakemap = Cities in the affected counties, but outside of shakemap area
city09_shakeclip = Cities in the affected counties and inside the shakemap area
city_pga_0_10_clip = Cities in low risk PGA zone
city_pga_12_60_clip = Cities in moderate risk PGA zone
city_pga_62_rest_clip = Cities in high risk PGA zone
HU_counties_clip = HU information for affected counties
HU_faults_clip = California faults within all affected counties (not just to the extent of the shakemap)
pga = Shakemap layer for Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA)
pga_highrisk_only = Shapefile of only the high risk PGA zone
pga_lowrisk_only = Shapefile of only the lowh risk PGA zone
pga_moderaterisk_only = Shapefile of only the moderate risk PGA zone
pgv = Shakemap layer for Peak Ground Velocity (PGV)
