# Orders of Magnitude Earthquake Data API

> Orders of Magnitude Earthquake Data API is a paid API for AI agents from x402-api-production-5133.up.railway.app, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-16).

Returns earthquake data (seismic event records) via a micropayment-gated REST endpoint using the x402 protocol

## Facts

- Endpoint: GET https://x402-api-production-5133.up.railway.app/data/earthquake-data?utm_source=zero.xyz
- Price: $0.01/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: unknown
- Last checked: 2026-10-16
- Activations on Zero: 0
- Tags: x402
- Canonical page: https://www.zero.xyz/c/orders-of-magnitude-earthquake-data-api-e709d903
- Structured record (JSON): https://api.zero.xyz/v1/capabilities/cap_L-uqv4Tf6clKmfBoJIQou

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability orders-of-magnitude-earthquake-data-api-e709d903
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the latest earthquake data for me — I'd like it in JSON format if possible?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need pay-per-call access to earthquake/seismic event data without a subscription, especially in micropayment or x402-enabled agent workflows. Prefer alternatives (e.g. USGS Earthquake API) if you need free, high-volume, or highly structured queries with filtering by region or magnitude.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not authorized or x402 payment fails — returns 402 Payment Required
- Invalid or unsupported format parameter — may return 400 Bad Request or default format
- Service unavailable on Railway deployment — returns 503 or timeout
- Empty result set if no earthquake data is currently available
