the database covers a series of elements in earthquake risk analysis according to the requirement of lifeline system: earthquake hazard data, lifeline structure data, kinds of analysis models, site data, forecasting result data, and aided design measure data. This paper introduces the characteristics of the database related to main six lifeline systems, including its function, structural design and design criterion, contents, and update technique. Geological Information System (GIS) is the important development tool in this database. The data transform technique based on GIS is also presented here.
