## What is QuakeCode?

QuakeCode App harnesses advanced artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to provide accurate earthquake risk forecasts for Istanbul and nearby regions. Istanbul, with nearly 20 million residents, lies on the North Anatolian Fault Zone, one of the world’s most active seismic areas. This fault zone has historically produced devastating earthquakes, making timely and reliable forecasts essential to protect lives, infrastructure, and improve disaster preparedness and response.

Our model combines supervised deep learning and gradient boosting using XGBoost. Trained on over 24,370 earthquakes (Mw ≥ 2) recorded from 1990 to 2025 in the Marmara Region, it analyzes seismic data—such as earthquake occurrence time, magnitude, depth, seismic energy, and b-value—using a sliding window technique. This approach allows the model to capture evolving seismic activity patterns over time. From this data, sixteen AI-derived features are extracted to predict the maximum expected earthquake magnitude for the next 60 days. The XGBoost model, optimized with 750 estimators, learning rate 0.05, and max depth 6, achieves an R² of 0.96, demonstrating high predictive accuracy and reliability.

QuakeCode also offers interactive 2D, 3D, and 4D visualizations of seismic patterns and forecasts using powerful Python libraries such as Matplotlib, Plotly, Geopandas, and mpl_toolkits.mplot3d. These visualizations enable researchers, engineers, government agencies, and the public to better understand complex seismic trends, spatial distributions, and prediction results, facilitating informed decision-making and risk assessment.

The app is built with a robust technology stack, including Python, TensorFlow, Keras, pandas, and XGBoost. Development and experimentation are conducted in flexible and scalable environments such as Jupyter Notebook, Google Colab, Anaconda, and Xcode. This infrastructure supports continuous improvement, ease of collaboration, and deployment in diverse settings, making it accessible for researchers and practitioners worldwide.

Beyond earthquake prediction, QuakeCode contributes to environmental sustainability by supporting the monitoring of underground CO₂ storage sites. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a crucial strategy for mitigating climate change by reducing atmospheric greenhouse gases. Seismic monitoring ensures the integrity and safety of these storage sites over time, helping to detect potential leaks or instability early. QuakeCode’s seismic analysis tools thus provide valuable insights for both hazard mitigation and environmental protection.

QuakeCode’s mission is to reduce earthquake hazards, protect lives, and strengthen infrastructure resilience. By delivering data-driven, AI-powered forecasts and visualizations, the app empowers policymakers, scientists, engineers, emergency responders, and communities to make better-informed decisions that promote safer, more prepared, and sustainable societies both locally and globally.

Please note that QuakeCode is intended for educational, research, and public awareness purposes only. It does not collect, store, or share any personal data, ensuring user privacy. Furthermore, while the app’s forecasts are scientifically grounded and highly accurate, they should not be considered official emergency warnings. Users should always rely on guidance from local authorities and authorized seismic monitoring organizations in the event of earthquake threats.


## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.0.9 — 2025-07-02

Unfortunately, the button texts in the previous version were not properly aligned and had shifted downward.
To correct this issue, the font size of the button texts has been reduced by 3 points.
Additionally, the color of the main title has been adjusted for consistency.

### 1.0.8 — 2025-07-01

Request to Release Version 1.0.8 Due to UI Text Adjustment

Dear App Review Team,

Although the new version has just been published, unfortunately, the text within the red buttons appears misaligned (shifted downward) on some devices. To address this visual issue, we have decreased the font size by 2.5 pt for better alignment.

We kindly request the release of version 1.0.8 as soon as possible to apply this correction and ensure a consistent user experience across all devices.

Thank you for your continued support.

Best regards,
Sam

### 1.0.7 — 2025-06-30

In this version, several visual and functional improvements have been made to enhance the user experience. The landing page has been redesigned, and Figure B of Istanbul has been replaced with an updated version for improved clarity and accuracy. The QuakeCode landing image has been resized to provide a more compact and visually appealing appearance. Button icons and styles have been revised to improve navigation and ease of use. Additionally, a copyright section has been added to the bottom of the interface.

Many content elements have also been revised and updated, including explanations of figures and descriptions throughout the app, to provide clearer and more accurate information to users.

A major functional upgrade in this version is that the figures for the training dataset, prediction dataset, and prediction result are now automatically updated within the app, ensuring users always access the latest visual information without needing manual refresh.

Finally, the app price has been reduced from $8.99 to $6.99, as the previous equivalent of 399 TL in Turkey was considered too high. This adjustment aims to make the app more affordable and accessible to a wider audience.

### 1.0.4 — 2025-06-17

No release notes.
