OpenQuake Engine

The OpenQuake Engine is an open source application that allows users to compute seismic hazard and seismic risk of earthquakes on a global scale. It runs on Linux, macOS and Windows, on laptops, workstations, standalone servers and multi-node clusters.

OpenQuake Engine version 2.4 (Ewing)

Starting from OpenQuake version 2.0 we have introduced a "code name" to honour earthquake scientists.

The code name for version 2.4 is Ewing, in memory of Maurice Ewing.
