2. NATO SfP 984374 | Improvements in the Harmonized Seismic Hazard Maps for the Western Balkan Countries KICK-OFF MEETING & 1st PROJECT WORKSHOP SKOPJE 4-5 October 2012 S.Radovanović WP 1: Improvement and Harmonization of the BSHAP Earthquake Catalogu: Examining and filtering the BSHAP Earthquake Catalogue for missing or duplicate events and fulfilment of missing or new earthquake data Investigating the catalogue completeness and identifying the possible existing gaps in the catalogue Unification of the magnitude scales and adding available earthquake metadata for the present earthquakes Providing a final earthquake catalogue compatible with international standards

NATO SfP 984374 | Improvements in the Harmonized Seismic Hazard Maps for the Western Balkan Countries KICK-OFF MEETING & 1st PROJECT WORKSHOP SKOPJE 4-5 October 2012 S.Radovanović Providing a final earthquake catalogue compatible with international standards Basic postulates: 1.All data should have root reference as agreed in Format of the catalogue; 2.Relations adopted or developed for magnitude conversion should be documented (for the partners countries at list); 3.Earthquakes in the border zones of the countries should be attached to the national catalogue of the country with maximum makroseismic intensities 4.The sovereignty of states, in a manner that are internationally recognized, refers to the contents of catalogues and can not be subject to overruling
