evmag: event magnitude

evlon: event longitude

evlat: event latitude

evdep: event depth (km)

net: network name of recording site

sta: station name of recording site

stlon: longitude of recording site

stlat: latitude of recording site

dist[km]: source-site distance in km

pga[%g]: peak ground acceleration in %g

pgv[cm/s]: peak ground velocity in cm/s
