Real-Time Earthquakes Simulation - Data: Last 30 Days

Color

Colors are chosen to quickly convey the severity:

Green: Magnitude < 3.0 - Small earthquakes, typically not felt.

Yellow: Magnitude 3.0 - 4.9 - Moderate, might be felt by people nearby.

Red: Magnitude >= 5.0 - Strong, can cause damage and are widely felt.

Data

Last 30 days of Global LIVE Real-Data Earthquakes. Be patient. Takes time. Thanks USGS

3D Globe

Use your mouse to zoom it in and out. And rotate as you like.

Size and Scale

The size of each line on the globe represents the magnitude of the earthquake:

• Scale: Size = Magnitude * 0.05, with a maximum size of 1 unit.
• Smaller points indicate lower magnitude events, while larger ones denote more significant quakes.

Proportions

The visualization shows:

• Number of Earthquakes: Each line represents one earthquake event.
• Depth: Not currently visualized, but all points are slightly elevated for visibility.
