The Italian Archive of Historical Earthquake Data, ASMI

Andrea Rovida, Mario Locati, Andrea Antonucci, and Romano Camassi

Abstract. ASMI, the Italian Archive of Historical Earthquake Data, is a data collection distributed online that provides seismological data on more than 6600 earthquakes that occurred in the Italian peninsula and surrounding areas from 461 BC to the present day, based on more than 460 seismological data sources. ASMI is the Italian node of AHEAD, the European Archive of Historical Earthquake Data, which is, in turn, the European node providing data on historical earthquakes to EPOS ERIC, the European Plate Observing System, a European Research Infrastructure Consortium. ASMI distributes earthquake parameters, sets of macroseismic intensity data and other details about earthquake effects, together with the bibliographical reference of the data source and, if possible the data source itself. ASMI’s web portal allows users to query the data by earthquake or by data source, and to download the earthquake parameters and macroseismic intensities and represent them on interactive maps and tables. ASMI is updated regularly with new data on past and recent earthquakes. ASMI is the basic source of data for the Italian Macroseismic Database (DBMI) and the Parametric Catalogue of Italian Earthquakes (CPTI). This article describes the archive content and structure, its main features and functionalities, and its potential seismological research applications.

Short summary
ASMI, the Italian Archive of Historical Earthquake Data, is a data collection that provides seismological data on more than 6600 earthquakes that occurred in Italy and surrounding between 461 BC and today, based on more than 460 data sources. ASMI distributes in diverse ways and formats earthquake parameters, sets of macroseismic intensity, together with the bibliographical reference of the data source and, if possible the data source itself.
