Dear R-CRISIS Users,
Remember, to avoid problems in Logic Tree Calculations, make sure that all branches request the same return periods at Global Parameters Menu.
Thank you for your preference and interest in R-CRISIS.
Best regards,

Hello, to my understanding when trying to export a hazard map you choose a probability of excedance in a time frrame (e.g. 50 years). What is the purpose of choosing a mean return period at global parameters when this is indirectly given to the program with a probability of exceedance in a given timeframe while expoting the results?

Dear Nikos,
Indeed, to export a hazard map you choose a exceedance probability in a time frame (e.g. 50 years) and automatically R-CRISIS calculates the return period associated to those values. However, some users are interested in getting the .map output file, which contains uniform hazard spectra for selected hazard levels. In this way, you will obtain a file in which the UHS, for each return period defined, will be contained.
Remember, to obtain this file you have to check the .map option in Input -> Set output files (optional).
Thank you for your preference and interest in R-CRISIS.
Best regards,
