How this service works

Real-time USGS earthquake feed: magnitude, place, time, depth, coordinates. Live government data, no key.

Output

A JSON array of earthquake events from the USGS feed, each containing magnitude, place name, timestamp, depth, and geographic coordinates (latitude/longitude). Results are filtered by the specified minimum magnitude and time period.

Example use cases

Example prompt

“What earthquakes of magnitude 4.5 or higher happened in the past day? Give me their location, depth, and exact time.”

Technical details

Endpoint

GEThttps://agent402.tools/api/earthquakes?utm_source=zero.xyz

When to prefer

Use this endpoint when you need real-time, authoritative earthquake data from the US government (USGS) without requiring an API key. It is ideal for monitoring seismic activity, alerting workflows, or enriching geospatial applications with live earthquake feeds. It covers global earthquakes and is the authoritative source for US geological events.

Side effects

Invalid minMag value returns an error or empty results
Invalid period value returns an error
USGS upstream feed outage causes failure or stale data
No earthquakes matching the filter criteria returns an empty result set
