When building a house, regional seismic hazard maps are used to find the best (or the worst) place to locate for earthquake shaking. Although greatly confused with its sister, seismic risk, seismic hazard is the study of expected earthquake ground motions at any point on the earth.

In general, a hazard map refers to a map describing the areas at risk of natural disasters, such as sediment-related disasters, floods, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions. On the other hand, hazard maps produced by municipal governments usually contain the following information in addition to the areas at risk of disasters: sketches of evacuation routes and shelters, evaluation of disaster possibility and frequency, a warning and evacuation system, and disaster-related basic information.As the hazard maps for sediment-related disaster prevention, prefectural governments have distributed to local people (a) a map of sediment-related disaster dangerous spots at risk of debris flows, slope failures, and landslides and (b) a map of sediment-related disaster hazard areas that include possible flooding areas due to debris flows, etc. These maps have also been provided to municipal governments so that they can produce their own hazard maps by adding locations of shelters and evacuation routes for distribution to local people. As to the hazard maps for lava flows due to volcanic eruptions, mud flows due to snowmelt, etc., they have mainly been produced by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism and prefectural governments.

The probability distribution of an experiment is a function that maps the probability of each possible outcome of the experiment to that outcome.

Geological Maps.
The seismic scale that measures the intensity of earthquake damage is called the Mercalli intensity scale. This scale measures the effect an earthquake has on people and surroundings.
The maps are Hanger 18, Silo, Hazard, Drive-in, and the zombie Map Shangri-La. The related link for Annihilation has detailed information about the individual maps and the Map Pack. The information will continually be added as it becomes available
