NewQuake vs Hazard Intelligence

NewQuake shows you what an earthquake actually did, not just its magnitude. Every significant quake comes with a map you can read. Replay the P and S seismic waves spreading from the epicenter, see ShakeMap shading where the ground shook hardest, watch the aftershock sequence fan out from the mainshock, and find the active faults nearby, including which plate is diving beneath which at a subduction zone. For the largest events, watch the finite-fault rupture unfold across the fault plane. What you get • Live for great quakes and tsunamis: while the waves are still travelling, the map draws them where they are right now • Recent feed with color-coded magnitudes, felt reports, JMA shindo for Japan, and aftershock sequence pills • Map tab with a satellite globe, plate boundaries, active faults, and every recent event in one view • Event pages with depth in context, energy released, fault type, and the official agency bulletin • Historical Quakes: the great and giant earthquakes of the past, plotted and replayable • Guided map tours of last week's notable quakes, and of the historic ones • Tsunami bulletins from NOAA, with the wavefront routed over the ocean floor and replayed • Ongoing volcanic eruptions from GDACS and the Smithsonian Global Volcanism Program • Notifications with your own magnitude and severity thresholds, per saved location • Optional Time-Sensitive alerts for dangerous nearby events • Home Screen widget with the latest event • A glossary that explains every term the app uses • No accounts, no advertising, no tracking Data sources U.S. Geological Survey, European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre, Japan Meteorological Agency, NOAA / National Weather Service, GDACS, and the Smithsonian Institution's Global Volcanism Program.

Every threat to your safety, read in real time — in one number, for exactly where you are. Hazard Intelligence fuses live data from the agencies that watch the planet — NASA, USGS, and the National Weather Service — into a single 0–100 risk score that updates as you move. No noise. No dashboards to babysit. Just a clear read on the danger around you, and a one-tap line to the people who matter when something goes wrong. LIVE HAZARD INTEL Active wildfires, earthquakes, severe-weather alerts, and power outages — pulled from public government feeds and fused into one location-aware score. Drill into any source to see exactly what's driving it. A 24-hour history sparkline and a 6-hour projection show you where conditions are heading, not just where they are. INSTANT SOS One tap shares your live GPS location, your current risk conditions, and a timestamp with up to five trusted contacts over SMS. They don't need the app. They don't need an account. They just need to know where you are. CRASH DETECTION On-device motion sensing watches for potential vehicle impacts. If one is detected, a 30-second cancellable countdown puts you in control. It never auto-dials 911 — you decide. BUILT FOR WHEN IT MATTERS - Background monitoring quietly watches your area and alerts you when risk crosses your threshold — even when the app is closed. - Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets keep your current risk in view at a glance. - Offline cache keeps your last reading available when the network drops. PRIVACY BY DESIGN No account. No login. No ad networks, no third-party trackers. Your location is used only to compute your risk score, it is never tied to an identity, and your contacts never leave your device. Hazard Intelligence is a situational-awareness tool. It is not a substitute for 911 or professional emergency services — in a life-threatening emergency, always contact local authorities.
