During the process for assessing seismic hazard there are some recurring operations which can be automated, which are about analysing the input data elements. The recurring operations are based on standard procedures and well known algorithms, and are performed a number of times in the range of tens, or even hundreds. It is therefore important to guarantee the correctness of the elaborations, and to reduce the human intervention which is always a potential source of errors. Specifically, we identified the following operations to be automated: the declustering of a catalog, the estimate of the catalogue completeness, the estimation of seismicity rates of source areas according to the Gutenberg-Richter distribution (G-R; [Gutenberg & Richter, 1944]). To perform the above operations, we...
