Tracking Seismic Activity

The Challenge

The United States Geological Survey(USGS) is responsible for providing scientific data about natural hazards, the health of our ecosystems and environment; and the impacts of climate and land-use change. The challenge is to build a new set of tools in HTML/CSS/Javascript that visualize their earthquake data on an interactive dashboard.

File Directory

  • index.html contains the .html script for our homepage
  • static folder contains our .js, ,css, and our data(json) files
  • Images folder contains screenshots of dashboard and data

Process

  • Fetched the json data from USGS site
  • Cleaned,sorted, filtered through the data
  • Created a map using Leaflet that plots earthquakes based on longitude and latitude
  • Structured markers that reflect magnitude and depth by size and color
  • Scripted tiles that allows users to toggle additional layers to the map for added visuals

Results
