Shakemap

Shakemap

ShakeMap, developed by the USGS, facilitates communication of earthquake information beyond just magnitude and location. By rapidly mapping out earthquake ground motions, ShakeMap portrays the distribution and severity of shaking.

Did You Feel It

The USGS collects information from people who felt an earthquake and creates maps that show what people experienced and the extent of the damage.
