Abstract:
QAFI is a database of faults with geological evidence of proven activity during the Quaternary period (the last 2.6 million years according to the limit officially established by the SQS in 2009) of the Iberian Peninsula. It is a project in constant revision and updating as a result of the progress of studies and knowledge about the structures capable of generating earthquakes in Iberia, and can never be considered complete or definitive, both because of the scientific nature of the data contained in it, and because of the modus operandi used in its construction: the altruistic collaboration of numerous researchers in Earth Sciences. QAFI, both in Access format and geospatially represented, is hosted and maintained by the Geological Survey of Spain (IGME), and is accessible to the entire scientific and technical community and society in general.
purpose:
The QAFI database has two main objectives: the storage and dissemination of information on the active quaternary faults of the Iberian Peninsula in a technologically updated and dynamic format, as well as contributing to improving seismic hazard estimates and making critical infrastructure projects and emergency or land-use plans more effective and optimal.

Lineage:
LI_Lineage:
statement:
Firstly, the scientific design of the database was carried out after reviewing other existing databases related to the subject (U.S. Geological Survey - http://earthquakes.usgs.gov/regional/qfaults/), New Zealand GNS - http://data.gns.cri.nz/af/), Japanese AIST - http://riodb02.ibase.aist.go.jp/activefault/index_e.html, French BRGM - www.neopal.net, INGV - http://diss.rm.ingv.it/diss/). Unlike the previous ones, QAFI was designed to be created from the altruistic collaboration of Earth science researchers, therefore an input form was designed. The data collection took advantage of the First Iberian Meeting on Active Faults and Palaeoseismology (Iberfault) held in October 2010, after which two major revisions (v.1.1 and v.2.0) were carried out. The latter aimed to improve the quality, uniformity and completeness of the data. All this information can be found in the following article: J. García-Mayordomo, J.M. Insua-Arévalo, J.J. Martínez-Díaz, A. Jiménez-Díaz, R. Martín-Banda, S. Martín-Alfageme, J.A. Álvarez-Gómez, M. Rodríguez-Peces, R. Pérez-López, M.A. Rodríguez-Pascua, E. Masana, H. Perea, F. Martín-González, J. Giner-Robles, E.S. Nemser, J. Cabral and the QAFI Compilers Working Group (2012) The Quaternary Active Faults Database of Iberia (QAFI v.2 .0), Journal of Iberian Geology (submitted).

Scientific design: Agreed by the authors after analysis of existing databases related to the subject.
LI_ProcessStep:
description:
Creation of an input form: It highlights a peculiarity in its design: it has been designed to be created from the altruistic collaboration of researchers in Earth Sciences..
LI_ProcessStep:
description:
Data upload: The data collection took advantage of the celebration of the First Iberian Meeting on Active Faults and Paleoseismology (Iberfault) held in October 2010 in Sigüenza (Guadalajara). At this meeting the first version of the database (then called QAFDBI v.1.0) was presented containing a total of 239 records.
LI_ProcessStep:
description:
Data revision I: The information provided in each of the records, as well as the internal organisation of the database, was reviewed and corrected. New fields were added, some records were deleted and new ones were added. QAFDBI v.1.1 was finally distributed in February 2011 containing 223 records.
LI_ProcessStep:
description:
Data Revision II: QAFDBI v.1.1 underwent an intensive revision process in order to improve the quality and uniformity of the information. This process was carried out by reviewing the literature referenced in each record and correcting the content of fields where necessary, always after obtaining permission from the compiler. In order to also improve completeness, new records were added by the database authoring team, resulting in QAFI v.2.0.
