Video, main shock seismic record lined up with security camera footage
February 8, 2018
Virtual Earthquake Reconnaissance Team (VERT) Summary by Renate Hartog.
Engineering firm Exponent created an interesting video by synchronizing the recording of the main shock by station KATNP with video footage recorded in a building nearby (note: seismic instrument is NOT in the same building).
You can see the server racks move relative to the floor (the floor is moving of course, so is the camera), roughly matching the sense of motion implied by the seismic record.
You can see a bigger version of the video on Jim Luetgert’s (retired U.S.G.S.) Facebook page: link to Facebook video.
Curated topics from the April 25, 2015, Nepal Earthquake to help inform reconnaissance activities, identify impacted regions, and help document the timeline of earthquake response/recovery.
