Data for Seismogenic Fault Reactivation in Western Central Africa: Insights from Regional Stress Analysis

These data represent structural data and earthquake data in Central Africa. Data on earthquake focal mechanism solutions were used for stress inversion. The focal mechanism solution data were compiled only from several literature reviews, Global CMT moment tensor, and GFZ. Field structural data were also compiled in the West Congo Belt (Republic of Congo and the Democratic Republic of Congo), the Paleozoic Inkisi Group (Both Congo), and the Archean rocks of Souanké (North of Republic of Congo)
