Live Earthquakes Monitoring with #GlobalQuake

Real time seismic monitoring, automatic location, depth and magnitude estimation of earthquakes using the GlobalQuake application. The displayed information is preliminary and is subject to errors - automated calculations will never be as accurate as manual ones. ==== What are the triangles? ==== Triangles represent seismic stations that are constantly monitoring ground movements at the certain location. At default, they have blue color and if any movement is detected, their color changes accordingly to the shaking intensity from green, yellow to red and they also flash to catch attention. ==== Why are some triangles upside down? ===== Seismic stations are divided into 3 main types in GlobalQuake based on which values they measure: accelerometers (upside down triangles) measure ground acceleration, seismometers (regular triangles) measure ground velocity and square stations measure ground displacement. ==== When will the next earthquake hit? ==== Earthquakes can strik
