How this service works
Recent earthquakes worldwide or within a radius of a point (USGS): magnitude, place, time, depth, tsunami flag, PAGER alert and felt reports, over the last hour, day, week or month. Use for risk monitoring and news.
Output
A list of earthquake events with details including magnitude, place name, timestamp, depth (km), tsunami flag, PAGER alert level, and number of felt reports, filtered by the requested period, location radius, and minimum magnitude.
Example use cases
Seismic risk monitoring near a city
“Show me any earthquakes in the last 24 hours within 300 km of Mexico City, magnitude 4 or above — I want to know if there's anything I should be worried about.”
Global significant earthquake news digest
“Give me a list of the top 20 most significant earthquakes worldwide over the past week, minimum magnitude 5, so I can put together a news briefing.”
Real-time tsunami threat check
“Have there been any earthquakes in the last hour near the coast of Japan within 200 km of latitude 35.7 and longitude 139.7 that triggered a tsunami flag?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://bess-x402.onrender.com/v1/geo/earthquakes?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need structured, near-real-time earthquake data sourced from USGS, especially when you need to filter by geographic radius around a point, time period, or minimum magnitude. Ideal for risk monitoring dashboards, news applications, and geospatial alert systems that need tsunami flags and PAGER alert levels alongside basic seismic data.
Side effects
- Invalid or out-of-range latitude/longitude values return an error
- period value not in {hour, day, week, month} returns a validation error
- radius_km too large may return many results or be capped
- limit must be between 1 and 500; values outside this range may error
- No earthquakes matching the filter criteria returns an empty result set
- USGS upstream data unavailability may cause service errors
