International Handbook of Earthquake & Engineering Seismology
1.3 Intensity and Isoseismal Maps The presentation of intensity data is usually
done in the form of a map. As well as plotting intensity points, it is usually useful
to be able to draw contour lines of equal intensity, called isoseismals. An
isoseismal ...
