Abstract:	Based on the available data obtained from more than 400 boreholes and using the GIS techniques, significant soil parameters were mapped for the territory of Bucharest. The geological results, correlated with (i) shear wave velocity measurements in several locations having depth between 30 m and 200 m and (ii) analysis of recorded strong earthquakes permit seismic microzonation of Bucharest to be used as a tool for urban planning and earthquake risk reduction.
