How this service works
Real-time earthquakes from USGS: magnitude, place, time, depth, coordinates. Query by magnitude and time window. Deterministic public data. $0.01 USDC via x402 on Base.
Output
A JSON response containing an 'ok' status flag and a 'result' object with USGS earthquake event records, each including magnitude, place name, timestamp, depth, and geographic coordinates for events matching the specified minimum magnitude filter.
Example use cases
Emergency response seismic alert
“Has there been any earthquake with magnitude 6 or higher anywhere in the world in the last few hours? I need to know for our emergency response briefing.”
Research data collection for seismology
“Fetch all earthquakes from the USGS feed with a minimum magnitude of 4 so I can analyze the global seismic activity patterns this week.”
Travel safety check before trip
“Are there any significant earthquakes happening — magnitude 5 or above — in the Pacific Ring of Fire region right now? I want to check conditions before my client travels.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://usgs_quakes.hergertsynthora.com/serviceWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need deterministic, authoritative, real-time earthquake data sourced directly from USGS, filtered by magnitude. Ideal for safety monitoring, research pipelines, alerting systems, or any agent task requiring structured seismic event data without scraping. Prefer over manual USGS feed parsing when you need a clean, paid API with consistent JSON output.
Side effects
- Invalid or non-integer minmagnitude value returns an error
- USGS upstream feed unavailable causes service failure
- No earthquakes above the specified magnitude threshold returns an empty result set
- Network timeout if USGS data refresh is delayed
- Payment failure via x402 prevents request from being processed
