This data and set of Matlab scripts implements methodology presented in:

M. Markhvida, L. Ceferino, and J. Baker. “Modeling spatially correlated spectral accelerations at multiple periods using principal component analysis and geostatistics”. In: Earthquake Engineering & Structural Dynamics In Review (2017).

The script MAIN_sample.m calls the other scripts in the folder, provides some comments, and can be helpful for understanding and using the code in this repository.
