TITLE: Earthquake epicenter records
DATES: 2001-
ARRANGEMENT: Grouped by file type, thereunder chronological
DESCRIPTION: This geospatial dataset represents the locations of earthquake epicenters in Utah recorded by the University of Utah seismograph stations. The data recording began in July 1962 and has continued to present (2001). The July 1, 1962 to September 30, 1974 data are based on instrumental earthquake locations from a skeletal regional seismic network (less than 26 stations statewide). Beginning in October 1974, the data are from a dense network of high-gain telemetered stations with significantly better locations and magnitude determinations than those for the pervious period.
