Seismic Microzoning for Urban Planning
Journal of Disaster Research, 2006 Since the Nobi Earthquake of 1891, seismology, engineering seismology, earthquake engineering, structural engineering and sciences which are related to the phenomena of earthquakes were developed in Japan. Especially pure sciences and engineering made great advances individually.

Seismic microzoning in New Zealand
Bulletin of the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 1971 "Seismic Microzoning" means many different things to different people. There is always included the element of different damage in nearby areas, but how the differences arise, how we should study them, and how we should apply the results of our studies, are still uncertain. To some people, microzoning refers to structural damage due to ground failure;
