GIS-Based Optimal Route Selection of Submarine Cables Considering Potential Seismic Fault Zones

Submarine lifelines (pipelines and cables) often cross areas characterized by earthquake-related geohazards (tectonic faulting, landslides and seabed liquefaction). Avoiding geologically hazardous areas increases the length (i.e., cost), whereas a potential crossing may detrimentally affect the stru...
