[Shake-admin] Re: ShakeMap comment from Payam Khashaee

[David Wald]

Dear Payam,

Your request is a logical one, but such a map has not been made (yet). I
have a map for the last 7 years of "Did You Feel It?" intensity data. It's
attached along with a legend for the intensity color coding.

Making such a map would be very useful, and I will see if I can find any
takers. The compilation and mapping of the 3 sets of data (ShakeMap, DYFI?,
and historic MMI) is a substantial task, but it can be done.

David
