USGS Global Earthquake Catalog
Provides historical data on global seismic events, sourced directly from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Earthquake Hazards Program via its FDSN Event Web Service.
Each record represents a single seismic event (primarily earthquakes) and contains detailed information, including:
- Event Time & Location: Precise timestamp, geographic coordinates (
latitude,longitude), and depth of the event.
- Magnitude: The magnitude of the event (
mag) and the method used to calculate it (magType), such asmd,ml, ormww.
- Data Quality: Metrics such as root mean square (
rms) of travel-time residuals, azimuthal gap (gap), and measurement errors to assess the reliability of the data.
- Source Information: Details about the network (
net) that reported the event and a unique event ID.
