EARTH IMPACT DATABASE

The 'Earth Impact Database' is the authoritative source for information on confirmed impact structures or craters on Earth. It was initiated in 1955 by the Dominion Observatory, Ottawa, under the direction of Dr. Carlyle S. Beals. It is now maintained as a not-for-profit source of information at the Planetary and Space Science Centre at the University of New Brunswick, Canada.
The database currently lists over 170 confirmed impact sites, all of which should be included in the list of impact craters on Earth.
Another comprehensive list is maintained by the Siberian Center for Global Catastrophes, Russian Academy of Sciences, Siberian division. [1]
