eQuakes

A geological workspace for analysing seismic catalogues, centroid moment tensors and hypocentre locations—and relating them to the structures visible in maps and registered images.

WHAT IT DOES

Place earthquake mechanisms and hypocentres inside a geological frame of reference.

01 · CATALOGUES

Read event collections.

Bring earthquake locations and catalogue records into one workspace for inspection, selection, and comparison.

02 · MECHANISMS

Inspect CMT solutions.

Work with centroid moment tensor data and focal-plane solutions to examine patterns in earthquake orientation.

03 · CONTEXT

Register the geology beneath.

Use geographically named images and supporting XML workflows to compare seismicity with mapped structure.

Datasets to get you started.

The original page supplied a registered Mercator image and a direct feed of recent centroid moment tensor solutions.
