PEGMA: Package for Exploratory Ground Motion Analysis

This is a package for seismologists and earthquake engineers for exploratory analysis of ground motions. It can help in analyzing and selecting the ground motions based on their characteristics.

Installation and usage

Installation is straight forward using pip. The package requires python version >= 3.6. To check the version of the python available on your system, open the terminal (Linux/Mac) or command prompt (windows) and enter the following commands to check the version.

python --version
