Phivolcs Fault Map

The PHIVOLCS FaultFinder is an application capable to do proximity searches to active faults. It may be used to determine the location of active faults in an area and to measure the shortest distance between an active fault and a user's current location, which is determined by the gadget's tracking device.

The Open Spaces were assessed by PHIVOLCS from Earthquake-related hazards such as not transected by the Valley Fault System, no Tsunami, no Liquefaction and no Earthquake-Induced Landslides. For areas transected or are within 300 meters from active faults, we recommend that you refer to the Active Fault Map layouts produced by DOST-PHIVOLCS.

The Fault Finder map shows the distribution of active faults and trenches in the Philippines as delineated by PHIVOLCS. The picture below shows the general location of fault lines and trenches. The Fault Finder map of PHIVOLCS is much clearer and interactive so I suggest that you should look at it.

The high seismic risk posed by this fault zone requires a large-scale active faults map, a fundamental data set for seismic hazard mitigation. Since 2003, Kyoto University and PHIVOLCS-DOST have been mapping the Philippine Fault. At present, approximately 90 of on-land-stretch of the PFZ has been mapped. This delineation is based on

MANILA, Philippines - The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology PHIVOLCS has shared online today the Valley Fault System VFS Atlas, a handbook of large scale maps that illustrates the areas that are near an earthquake fault. A high resolution copy of the atlas is available for free download upon registration from the PHIVOLCS website. It is unveiled to spread awareness on West

If there is no hazard map available in your selected province, it's either there is no hazard specific to the area or mapping is still ongoing. PHIVOLCS takes the necessary steps to continuously improve the accuracy of hazards information reflected on each map generated. These maps may be revised as new information becomes available. 3.

DOST-PHIVOLCS studies and researches on these fault system resulted in a collection of maps called the Valley Fault System VFS Atlas. This is a printed handbook of large scale maps showing in detail areas traversed by the Valley Fault System. The good news is that the atlas can now be downloaded from the website of DOST-PHIVOLCS for easier
