EARTHQUAKE DATA

Real-time global seismic activity monitoring using USGS earthquake feeds.

DATA SOURCES

The GEOINT.WORLD Earthquake module utilizes real-time seismic data feeds provided by the U.S. Geological Survey.

FILTERS & CLASSIFICATIONS

Use the Earthquake Settings Panel to control which seismic events are displayed on the map.

TIMEFRAME

Select the time window for earthquake data:

• 1H — Past Hour
• 1D — Past 24 Hours (default)
• 7D — Past 7 Days
• 30D — Past 30 Days

MAGNITUDE FILTER

Control the minimum magnitude threshold for displayed earthquakes. Options include M1.0+, M2.5+ (default), M4.5+, and ALL.

MAGNITUDE COLOR CODING

Earthquakes are color-coded by magnitude for rapid severity assessment:

• M2.5 - M3.9 — Minor (Yellow)
• M4.0 - M4.9 — Light (Orange)
• M5.0 - M5.9 — Moderate (Red)
• M6.0 - M6.9 — Strong (Dark Red)
• M7.0+ — Major/Great (Deep Red)

Earthquakes above M5.0 display a pulsing ring effect on the map to highlight significant seismic events.

TELEMETRY FIELDS

Inspecting an earthquake reveals the following data points:
