Open-Source Seismic Hazard Analysis (OpenSHA)
Developers
OpenSHA has an active and growing developer community. It’s use by various groups ranging from the WGCEP to the New Zealand NSHM has brought together developers from all over the world. Code contributions related to these projects, as well as those by individuals in the public, academic, and private sector have been significant. As an open source project, OpenSHA welcomes any additional involvement and contributions.
Getting the Source
OpenSHA source code is hosted on GitHub. The starting point for documentation is the opensha README. Once you have downloaded the source, you can compile the project or build jar files for use in external projects. We typically develop OpenSHA code with Eclipse.
If, at some future time, you have made changes or enhancements that warrant inclusion in the project, please submit a pull request, or contact the project to see about getting them integrated.
OpenSHA Project Structure
The primary opensha code and model implementations are stored in the opensha repository. There are a few additional projects, such as our shared development sandbox (opensha-dev) and separate repositories for CyberShake and operational aftershock forecast codes:
| Name | Depends On | Description |
|---|---|---|
| opensha | - | Primary OpenSHA repository |
| opensha-dev | opensha | Development sandbox for shared prototyping |
| opensha-cybershake | opensha-dev | CyberShake interface code and calculators |
| opensha-oaf | opensha | Operational Aftershock Forecasting codes and GUI applications |
The releases page of the primary repository contains pre-built jar files that can be referenced from external projects.
