Abstract. In 2012, Italy was struck by a seismic crisis characterized by two main shocks (ML 5.9 and 5.8) and relevant liquefaction events. Terre del Reno (Emilia-Romagna Region) is one of the municipalities that experienced the most extensive liquefaction effects due to its complex geo-stratigraphic and geo-morphological setting. Thus, it was chosen as case study for the PERL project, devoted to defining a new integrated methodology to assess the liquefaction susceptibility in complex stratigraphic conditions through a multi-level approach. About 1800 geotechnical, geophysical and hydrogeological investigations were collected and stored in a publicly available dataset named PERL that is here presented.

RC1: 'Comment on nhess-2022-240', Anonymous Referee #1, 10 Oct 2022
The Authors provided a freely accessible database of investigations for an area affected by Emilia earthquake in 2012. The data are very useful, although they are located in only one municipality. My suggestion is to improve the details on the study area in terms of:
- Insert the areas affected by liquefaction
- few sentences on geological setting are necessary
- Present a geological cross-section of the study area
- Figure 2 should be made of 2 maps, one for point investigations and another for linear, as the latter are not visible
- Several typos are present in the manuscript, please check
- In the conclusions, provide more comments on how you used or will use these data in the future.

RC2: 'Comment on nhess-2022-240', Anonymous Referee #2, 01 Nov 2022
The authors present a geotechnical database for soil liquefaction in Emilia-Romagna, Italy. Such studies are valuable especially for carrying forth investigations in the future. The database can be used in diverse studies. Thus, the study is meritorious. However, the serious concern from my side is that the authors do not clearly state the problem. They need to refer to some standard publications that address soil liquefaction issues after major earthquakes. Based on the shortcomings of those studies, they can better define the problem and proceed with their database. Also, a dissection of the database is required to justify the novelty of the work. For instance, they could easily use some statistical inference to tell the audience about the uniqueness of the data. Implications can be also networked with the database that is prepared. In its current form, the paper looks more like a report. Please flesh up to give life.Â

Dear Referee #2,
Thank you for your comment and suggestions on this manuscript. We will modify the text to better state the problem, also enlarging the state of the art including additional scientific publications on the topic. We will also work to highlight the uniqueness of the dataset and its implications for the scientific community.
