Data

Every file below is rebuilt each time the collector runs (every 30 minutes). Times are UTC. One row is one earthquake after merging reports from USGS and EMSC (and IRSC for earlier events).

Full database

The complete DuckDB file: raw reports from each source (raw_events), merged events (events) and the collector log (source_runs).

Available once the scheduled collector has published it.

Feeds and layers

Atom feed: significant events, active sequences, and M3.5+ in the Iran region.
latest.json: the last 7 days as used by this site, with source status.
fault_zones.geojson: the 21 monitored zones and their buffer widths.
Monthly archive: every stored event, one CSV file per calendar month.
gem_active_faults.geojson: GEM active faults worldwide, simplified (CC BY-SA 4.0).
plate_boundaries.geojson: plate boundaries from Bird (2003), PB2002 (ODC-BY 1.0).

Columns

event_id: Preferred source and its event id, e.g. irsc:213507.
time_utc: Origin time, UTC.
lat, lon: Epicentre, degrees.
depth_km: Hypocentre depth, km.
mag, mag_type: Magnitude and its type as reported by the preferred source.
place: Location description from the preferred source.
country: Country of the epicentre, or the nearest within about 150 km offshore (GeoJSON and site data only).
preferred_source: USGS, then EMSC; IRSC first inside the Iran region for earlier events.
sources: Every source that reported the event.
in_iran_region: Inside IRSC's box for Iran and adjacent areas (lat 24-41, lon 42-64).
fault_zone: Monitored fault zone whose buffer contains the epicentre, if any.
fault_distance_km: Distance from the zone trace.
significant: M5+ worldwide, or M4+ in the Iran region.
sequence: 5 or more events within 25 km in the 6 hours up to this event.
