Maps of seismic hazard prior to the Tonopah earthquake generated from Temblor’s PUSH (Probabilistic Uniform Seismic Hazard) at top and the USGS 2014 NSHMP (National Seismic Hazard Mapping Project) at bottom for comparison. PUSH does not use faults as input whereas the USGS does. Despite this, the hazard is very comparable, if not slightly higher for PUSH than NSHMP.
