Earthquake Hazard Map Based on Seismic Design Categories for the Province of North Cotabato

Requested from PHIVOLCS by C. Pandio at 08:39 AM on Mar 24, 2022.
Purpose: Academic Purposes for Disaster Readiness and Risk Reduction
Date of Coverage: 01/01/2018 - 01/01/2022
Tracking no: #PHIVOLCS-440210215716

Pandio 08:40 AM, Mar 24, 2022 

Good day! I would like to request for a color-coded earthquake hazard map which denotes seismic design categories for North Cotabato. 

While I was able to find a ground rupture map in this site:  https://gisweb.phivolcs.dost.gov.ph/gisweb/earthquake-volcano-related-hazard-gis-information, it did not reflect the likelihood of experiencing earthquake-shaking of various intensities- which is what the SDC symbolizes.

Hoping for your kind consideration
