Quakorld shows earthquakes around the world in real time, on a clear and fast map. LIVE • Data from USGS, EMSC and the Swiss Seismological Service, merged: an earthquake reported by several agencies appears only once. • New earthquakes arrive within seconds through the EMSC live feed. • Colors by magnitude, tectonic plate boundaries on the map. ALERTS • Get a notification as soon as an earthquake matches your rules: minimum magnitude anywhere in the world, around you, or around a place picked on the map. • Tsunami and high-impact alerts: be notified when USGS flags a possible tsunami or issues an orange or red PAGER alert. STATISTICS • Number of earthquakes, the strongest, energy released, median depth, hour-by-hour activity and the most active regions. APPLE WATCH • Earthquake list, map and details on your wrist. PRIVACY No account, no ads, no tracking. Your location is sent to the alert server only if you create a "Near Me" rule, with about 1 km precision. Quakorld is not an official warning system: public data may be delayed, revised or incomplete. Always follow the instructions of the authorities.
