GNS Science has been involved in a global project to produce a series of earthquake hazard and risk maps. The maps, which build a mosaic of more then 30 different national and regional maps, are said to predict the impact of future earthquakes. GNS Science was responsible for developing the New Zealand models for seismic hazards and risks. They say this information will provide effective information for decision-makers and planners both in New Zealand and abroad. Kathryn Ryan talks through the significance of these new maps with GNS Science seismologist Dr Matt Gerstenberger.
