The US Geological Survey recently
released an updated version of the USGS
National
Seismic Hazard Maps (press release).
This one is interactive, allowing you to choose levels of probability
and "peak horizontal acceleration" to display. According to the
release: "This revision incorporates new seismic, geologic and
geodetic
information on earthquake rates and the manner in which the energy
released in earthquakes dies off with distance from the rupture."

An interactive session at a recent regional GIS event prompted our editors to explore how we are trained in GIS, and how and if we use spatial thinking in our day-to-day work. Are we just pushing buttons and following recipes, or are we truly using the underlying ideas of how people, places and things behave in space? Does it matter if you are trained in geography vs. GIS vs. another discipline? What does the future look like for those skilled (or not) in spatial thinking?
