Frequently Asked Questions
How often is the earthquake data updated?
Our live earthquake tracker updates automatically every minute. We pull data directly from major geological agencies including the USGS to keep the feed current.
What qualifies as a "Significant" earthquake?
This tracker follows the USGS significance standard: a score above 600 based on magnitude, Did You Feel It? reports and PAGER impact.
What do the magnitude filters mean?
Magnitude measures the energy released by an earthquake. Higher thresholds focus the list on stronger events that are more likely to be widely felt or damaging.
