中华人民共和国成立之初,我国就非常重视方志中地震历史资料的编辑整理工作,其中辑录出的许多资料为分析各地地震的分布特点、演变规律、地震烈度等提供了重要参考。20世纪70年代,各省区整理的地震资料汇编成为新时期我国方志学兴起的萌芽。80年代末,地震志逐渐成为许多方志编纂中增列的新类目,这不仅为我国今后抗震救灾工作留下了许多可供借鉴的资料,也逐渐成为方志编纂的重要内容。 At the beginning of the founding of the People’s Republic of China, China attached great importance to the compilation and editing of the historical data of Fang Zhizhong’s earthquake. Many of the data recorded in the series provided an important reference for the analysis of the distribution characteristics, evolution laws and seismic intensity of earthquakes in various places. In the 1970s, the seismic data compiled by the provinces and autonomous regions were compiled into the germination of the rise of local chorography in the new era. In the late 1980s, the earthquake epicenter gradually became a new category added to many compilations of the chronicles. This not only left a great deal of useful information for the future earthquake relief work in our country, but also gradually became an important part of its compilation.
