About this app

Terremoto shows the latest earthquake data for the Italian peninsula, as reported by INGV (National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology). Includes free push notification alerts.
Main features:
• push notifications on your phone as soon as the event data is available from an official source (you can set alerts based on location and/or magnitude threshold)
• map with different sized and colored circles to represent event magnitude and age
• event timeline (today, yesterday, previous days)
• detail view for each event, reachable from map and timeline views
• magnitude and nearby event filters
• social sharing: share event map and data to social networks
• multiple languages: the app is localized in English, Spanish, French, German, Italian
• seismic events nearby from the seismic bulletin (data from 1970 to present)
• map layers: active faults, population density
• following a potential seismic event, the app analyzes user reports and app usage data to provide an estimated location within 180 seconds, pending official confirmation.
• option to report a recently felt seismic event
• no ads

The earthquake data for events occurring in Italy, displayed in the app and used for push notifications, is published by the Italian National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV, source: https://www.ingv.it). Official data is typically published approximately 20 minutes after the event.

For some significant earthquakes, an automatic preliminary estimate may be displayed during the first few minutes after the event. Such estimates are clearly identified as preliminary and may be provided by INGV or by one of the agencies listed below.
