The core objects of DISS are: - the individual seismogenic source, a simplified and three-dimensional representation of a fault plane. Individual seismogenic sources are assumed to exhibit "characteristic" behavior with respect to rupture length/width and expected magnitude; - the composite seismogenic source, an elongated region containing an unspecified number of aligned seismogenic sources that cannot be singled out. Composite seismogenic sources are not associated with a specific set of earthquakes or earthquake distribution; - the debated seismogenic source is an active fault that has been proposed in the literature as a potential seismogenic source but was not considered reliable enough, or for which there is not yet sufficient information, to be included in another category. - the subduction zone, which is a complex three-dimensional representation of the detachment at the base of the accretionary wedge, the interface between the two plates at crustal depth, and the dipping slab at mantle depth. Individual and Composite seismogenic sources are two alternative seismic source models to choose from. They are tested against independent geophysical data to ensure the users about their level of reliability. A number of scientists have already used DISS in successful applications concerned with various aspects of earthquake hazards. Each record in the Database is backed by a Commentary, a selection of Pictures, and a list of References, as well as fault scarp or fold axis data when available (usually structural features with documented Late Pleistocene - Holocene activity). The Database can be navigated through a web browser, downloaded in various GIS file formats, or accessed through OGC web services. This Database contains data, software, texts and elaborations prepared by researchers of the Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia. The compilation of the database relies heavily on the scientific literature on active faults, seismotectonics, paleoseismology, tectonic geomorphology, and all other disciplines related to active tectonics. Studies of historical or recent earthquake ruptures are key to understanding the seismogenic behavior of active faults. Original data and legacy data, not necessarily published in journal articles, also form the knowledge base to characterize the seismogenic sources. Among these, seismic reflection profiles, well logs, data collected in field reconnaissances, dating of sedimentary units, and geological data in the broadest sense also play a critical role. Several parameters associated with the seismogenic sources are derived by numerical modeling (e.g., slip rate derived from geologic restoration), or analytical/empirical relations (e.g., earthquake magnitude derived from fault scaling relations).
