Beginning in 2009, EERI created a series of virtual earthquake clearinghouses after major earthquakes where information coming from the affected area could be quickly shared with members and others. These virtual clearinghouses contain early information provided by investigators from a variety of disciplines, including members of EERI reconnaissance teams. The virtual clearinghouses primarily capture ephemeral data about each event, and are not updated with recovery and rebuilding information. Check out EERI’s Learning from Earthquakes archive for reports on and links to over 290 earthquakes that have occurred since 1971. There is also a link at the bottom of this page to the California Earthquake Clearinghouse, a multi-agency cooperative effort to prepare the scientific and engineering communities for the next major California earthquake.
