Earthquake shows every significant quake on Earth as it happens, plotted on a 3D globe you can spin, zoom and explore.
Data is merged from USGS and EMSC and refreshed every few minutes, so what you see is what seismic networks have just recorded.
WHAT YOU CAN DO
- Watch live seismic activity on an interactive globe
- Browse a ranked list of recent quakes with magnitude, depth and distance
- Open any event for details: location, time, depth, magnitude type and nearby places
- Filter by magnitude so you only see what matters to you
- Get alerts when a quake happens near a place you care about
- Switch between light and dark themes
WHO IT IS FOR
Anyone living in a seismic region, travellers, students, and people who simply want to understand what the planet is doing right now.
ABOUT THE DATA
Earthquake data comes from public seismic networks: the United States Geological Survey (USGS) and the European Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC). Magnitudes and locations are preliminary and can be revised by these agencies as more sensor data arrives.
