Comprehensive guide to EarthquakeLive.org warnings: from instantaneous felt earthquake notifications to predictive AI hazard warnings and browser acoustic sirens.
Each alert type fulfills a specific role in seismic risk mitigation
Type: Post-event seismic occurrence
Triggers immediately when a seismic tremor is recorded by any of our 18 integrated networks (USGS, EMSC, JMA, BMKG, CSN, SSN, and 12 regional authorities) within your custom geo-radius (50–500 km) exceeding your magnitude threshold (e.g. M ≥ 4.0). Deduplicated and cross-verified in real time.
Provides instant situational awareness of felt shaking, eliminating rumor-spreading and confusion.
Type: Pre-event probabilistic forecast
Dispatched proactively when ML models detect critical stress accumulation, projecting hazard probability P(M≥4.5) above your threshold (30%, 50%, 70%) for the upcoming 12h, 24h, 72h, or 7-day window.
Proactive preparedness: verifying emergency kits, securing loose furniture, and elevating readiness protocols for emergency services.
Type: Real-time acoustic auditory cue
Built-in zero-dependency Web Audio API synthesizer. Creates a realistic low-frequency tectonic rumble (45–100 Hz) paired with an acoustic sonar chime parameterized by earthquake magnitude.
For operations centers, situational room wall displays, and desktop monitoring without keeping your eyes fixed on the screen.
Type: Transparent scientific accuracy ledger
Upon closure of every 12h, 24h, 72h, and 7-day forecast window, predictions are reconciled with multi-source ground truth across 18 integrated catalogs to compute contingency tables (Hits, False Alarms, Misses) and Brier Skill Scores.
Guarantees uncompromised scientific integrity and continuous quality verification.
