Popis: We present a map and a data set containing information about intra-plate seismic sources in El Salvador. These are the results of the field campaigns and data analysis carried out by the research group of Planetary Geodinamics, Active Tectonics and Related Risks from Complutense University of Madrid during the last 12 years. We include two maps, the first map contains 1405 fault traces with evidences of Quaternary activity derived form morphometric, paleoseismological and geomorphological analysis together with field data mapping carried in El Salvador. The second map is a synthesis of the 29 intra-plate seismic sources selected from the quaternary faults map. The geometry of these sources was simplified and we also include a table where some available data of the proposed sources are included, such as their name, orientation, length and slip-rate. For further interpretation and discussion of these sources see (Alonso-Henar et al., 2018) [1, doi.org/10.1016/j.enggeo.2018.06.015].
This research was supported by the project “QUAKESTEP” (CGL2017–83931-C3-1-P) founded by the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities. We are grateful to our colleagues at DGOA-MARN (Observatorio Ambiental del Ministerio de Medio Ambiente y Recursos Naturales de El Salvador): Manuel Díaz, Walter Hernandez and Douglas Hernández for their assistance. Figures were produced using GMT software [13].
