USGS Earthquake Search by Magnitude
x402
USGS Earthquake Search by Magnitude is a paid API for AI agents from proxy.suverse.io, paid per call via x402, $0.004/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).
Search USGS earthquake records by minimum magnitude and optional start time, returning matching seismic events with magnitude, location, timestamp, and coordinates, sorted newest first.

How this service works
Search USGS earthquakes by minimum magnitude and optional start time, no key. Returns matching events with magnitude, place, time, and coordinates, newest first. For AI agents querying seismic history on demand.
Output
Returns a list of matching earthquake events sorted newest first. Each event includes the earthquake's magnitude (numeric), descriptive place name (e.g. '15km NE of Tokyo'), UTC timestamp of the event, and geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude). The response reflects USGS data filtered to the requested minimum magnitude and optional start time.
Example use cases
Monitor recent major seismic activity
“What significant earthquakes have happened globally in the last 7 days? I want anything magnitude 5.0 or above, sorted from most recent.”
Research historical earthquake events
“Can you fetch all USGS earthquakes with a magnitude of at least 6.5 that occurred since March 1, 2025? I need the place, coordinates, and exact time for each.”
Alert on strong regional quakes
“Pull any earthquakes magnitude 4.0 or greater recorded since yesterday morning — I'm tracking seismic activity for a safety report.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://proxy.suverse.io/v1/data/suverse-quakes-searchWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need on-demand, keyless access to USGS earthquake data filtered by minimum magnitude and/or start time, especially in agentic workflows where no API key management is desired. Prefer this over direct USGS API calls when operating within an x402 micropayment context or when you need a simple, consistent interface that returns pre-sorted seismic events without additional query complexity.
Side effects
- Invalid or missing minimum magnitude parameter causes request rejection
- Malformed start time format may return no results or an error
- Very low magnitude thresholds may return extremely large result sets
- USGS upstream unavailability may cause degraded or empty responses
- Payment (x402) failure will block access before the query is executed
