For the GAR Atlas, a fully probabilistic seismic hazard analysis at global level was developed by CIMNE and INGENIAR Ltda. This hazard model is a continuation and improvement of the one developed in the framework of GAR13 where a set of tectonic provinces were identified and characterized by means of a set of parameters that describe the future seismic activity on each of them based on historical records together with relationships to obtain hazard intensities as a function of magnitude and distance. The hazard analysis was performed using the program CRISIS2014, a state-of-the-art tool for these kinds of tasks and widely known and acknowledged by experts in the field across the world. The chosen hazard intensity measure for this case was spectral acceleration and to guarantee a good connection between the hazard and the exposure characteristics, results for several ordinates beteween 0.0 and 2.3 seconds were computed. More details about the probabilistic seismic hazard analysis can be found in Cardona et al. (2015).
