Example crustal stress dataset
Description
Subsets of the World Stress Map (WSM) compilation of information on the crustal present-day stress field (Version 1.1. 2019).
Usage

- id
Measurement identifier
- lat
latitude in degrees
- lon
longitude in degrees
- azi
SHmax azimuth in degrees
- unc
MMeasruement standard eviation (in degrees)
- type
Type of measurement
- depth
Depth in km
- quality
WSM quality rank
- regime
Stress regime
