Description: 
This resource specifies the information content requested for features representing Seismic Event hypocenter observations. Design is focused on event hypocenters portrayed as points. Hypocenter data for geothermal data system is intended as a tool to identify seismically active areas that are often associated with hydrothermal activity, thus the content model does not include detailed information that would be important for seismological analysis; such information should be accessed by including related resource links. As such data should be restricted to records for known or suspected earthquakes. Epicenters may also be reported by leaving depth information null. The template is an Excel v2003 spreadsheet. Latitude and longitude coordinates reported in the spreadsheet will be converted to the 'geometry' or 'shape' field when the template is converted to a feature class to set up a web feature service to deliver data.
