Objective:This workshop will summarize these international GMSV efforts and possibly others, further coordinate them, and initiate future collaborations. The main goal of the workshop is to discuss the future of the GMSV TAG in SCEC5. We will encourage discussions on 1) the organization and structure of the TAG based on lessons learned from other international groups, focused on encouraging interactions between validation researchers, simulation modelers and end users, 2) the need for developing a database interface, where users can access the SCEC simulated earthquake ground motions, and 3) engagement with engineering users and outreach by moving towards an integrated earthquake ground motion simulation and validation program that builds on the knowledge from previous independently-funded GMSV TAG projects.
