earthquake-reports

installation example (ubuntu)

Clone: git clone https://github.com/geophystech/earthquake-reports.git

Install pip for python3: sudo apt install python3-pip

AND optionally update it pip3 install --upgrade pip

Install matplotlib basemap via apt: sudo apt install python3-mpltoolkits.basemap python-mpltoolkits.basemap-data

Instal project dependencies: pip install -r earthquake-reports/requirements.txt

Check: earthquake-reports/eqmap.py -h

eqmap.py

This script generates PNG map and XLSX files.

Earthquake data could be retrieved from two sources:

• earthquake.usgs.gov (USGS FDSN Event Web Service)

• rest-api.eqalert.ru (EQAlert Seismo API)

  --login LOGIN         Username from EQALERT.RU service please note that you
                        have to complete registration to use queries without
                        constrains, see more details on
                        https://eqalert.ru/#/register
  --password PASSWORD   Password from EQALERT.RU service
  --shape-file SHAPE_FILE
                        Path to path to shapefile. The Shapefile name must go
                        without the shp extension. The library assumes that
                        all shp, sbf and shx files will exist with this given
                        name
  --from-usgs           Wether or not gather data from earthquake.usgs.gov
                        service instead of default rest-api.eqalert.ru
  --numerate-events     Numerate events
  --plot-stations       Plot stations, only if rest-api.eqalert.ru data source
                        selected
  --full-resolution     Plot a HIGH resolution basemap

eqmap examples

Just plot events from USGS for 1 year:

eqmap.py 140 165 40 60 --from-usgs --date-min 2018-01-01 --date-max 2019-01-01
