We have revised the distribution of the peak ground velocities (PGV) in the Hanshin area during the 1995 Hyogo-ken Nanbu earthquake. The original PGV distribution was based on only the damage of residential houses, but the damage of the other types of buildings is also considered in the revision. In addition, we have refined the resolution of PGV in many cho whose area is broad. Evaluated PGV distribution has good correspondence with observed records and evaluated ground motions in the main shock except for the liquefied area like reclaimed land or the cho in which the PGV level drastically changes. On the other hand, the PGV in Nishinomiya city is not less than 60% of that in the Kobe city.
