About this Dataset

Global Earthquake Data

This dataset provides detailed information on 1,137 earthquakes from around the world. It includes a wide range of attributes such as magnitude, location details, time, and various seismological measurements. The data was collected using the EveryEarthquake API from RapidAPI, offering researchers, seismologists, and data enthusiasts a rich resource for analysis, machine learning projects, and geological studies.
Key features of this dataset include:

Comprehensive coverage of 1,137 earthquake events
43 attributes for each earthquake, including geological, geographical, and temporal data
Detailed location information, from continent down to locality level
Seismological measurements such as magnitude, depth, and intensity scales
Metadata on the reporting and status of each earthquake event

This dataset is ideal for:

Analyzing patterns in global seismic activity
Developing machine learning models for earthquake prediction or classification
Studying the relationship between earthquake characteristics and geographical features
Creating visualizations and maps of seismic events
Investigating the impact of earthquakes on different regions and localities

Some of the most valuable attributes in this dataset are:

magnitude: The size or strength of the earthquake
depth: The depth of the earthquake's hypocenter below the Earth's surface
latitude and longitude: Precise coordinates of the earthquake's epicenter
place: A description of the earthquake's location
time and date: When the earthquake occurred
felt, cdi, and mmi: Different measures of the earthquake's intensity and impact
tsunami: Whether the earthquake triggered a tsunami warning
alert: The alert level issued for the earthquake

Whether you're a seismologist, data scientist, geologist, or disaster preparedness expert, this dataset offers a wealth of information to explore and analyze seismic activity across the globe. It can be used for various applications, from academic research to practical risk assessment and emergency planning.
