New USGS website for San Francisco earthquake studies

The USGS has just announced a really useful new web-based resource that uses Google Earth to visualize a vast quantity of spatial data about the earthquake hazard in San Francisco.

The files can be downloaded seperately, and some will replace the data files I made for my own San Francisco decision making exercise This was my best lesson from this year, and the new USGS resources will complement the task very well. I will be revising this activity in light of the new developments.
