Description:
Version 2.0 of the Italian Macroseismic Database DBMI15 has been released in November 2019, and replaces the prevision version 1.5 (Locati et al. 2016) that was released in July 2016. This minor revision extend the time-coverage to the years between 2015 and 2017 and contains the correction of a few compilation errors; changes between v1.5 and v2.0 of DBMI15 are detailed in Section 6; changes occurred between DBMI11 (Locati et al., 2011) and DBMI15 are described in Section 5.
DBMI v2.0 makes available a set of macroseismic intensity data related to Italian earthquakes and covers the time-window 1000-2017. Intensity data derive from studies by authors from various Institutions, both in Italy and bordering countries (France, Austria, Slovenia, and Croatia).
Macroseismic Data Points (MDPs) are collected and organized in DBMI for several scopes. The main goal is to create a homogenous set of data for assessing earthquake parameters (epicentral location and magnitude) for compiling the Parametric Catalogue of Italian Earthquakes (CPTI). The data provided by DBMI are also used for compiling the seismic history of thousands of Italian localities (15332 in DBMI15), in other words the list of effects observed in a place through time as a consequence of earthquakes, expressed as macroseismic intensity degrees.
As they are closely linked, DBMI and CPTI have been published together, and using the same release version (e.g. DBMI04-CPTI04, DBMI11-CPTI11), but in two distinct websites.
From this release, DBMI and CPTI (Rovida et al., 2019) are made available using a unified website generated using an updated version of the software MIDOP (Locati and Cassera 2010).
