MyShake Earthquake Alerts3.1.26

MyShake is a fully functional and completely free earthquake application, which provides users with all-round earthquake monitoring, early warning and response support. It can not only provide timely earthquake warning and help users to prepare before the earthquake, but also cover many practical functions such as earthquake safety knowledge, global earthquake map, real-time earthquake notification and participation in global earthquake monitoring network. Through MyShake, users can master earthquake information anytime and anywhere, learn earthquake response skills, and contribute to earthquake research.

Earthquake early warning

In California, Oregon and Washington, MyShake provides timely and potentially life-saving earthquake early warning, providing users with vital early warning. With the help of the ShakeAlert system of the US Geological Survey (USGS), MyShake can give users an earthquake warning with a magnitude of 4.5 or higher in the critical seconds before the earthquake arrives. This function not only gains valuable response time for users, but also protects the safety of life and property in an emergency, so that users can be fully prepared before the earthquake.

Earthquake safety

In-depth understanding of earthquake preparation safety tips, including how to fix potentially dangerous or movable items, and how to make a comprehensive disaster response plan. Through MyShake, you can not only master the correct response method when an earthquake occurs, but also deeply learn the key earthquake protection principle of "getting down, covering and grasping". This knowledge will help you stay calm when an earthquake strikes and take correct actions quickly to ensure the safety of you and your family.

Earthquake map

View and explore the global earthquake map, and obtain detailed information of earthquakes, including key parameters such as magnitude, location and focal depth of earthquakes. These data not only help you understand the scale and influence range of earthquakes, but also let you see the global distribution of earthquakes intuitively. It also allows you to share your own personal experience of the earthquake, and at the same time view the reports of other users in the community about the earthquake vibration and damage. This interactive function not only enhances users' cognition of earthquake events, but also helps people to better understand the actual impact of earthquakes on different regions. In this way, MyShake is not only an information platform, but also an earthquake monitoring and response community with the participation of global users.

Earthquake notification

Through the earthquake notification function, you can keep abreast of the latest developments of earthquakes anytime and anywhere through your mobile phone. You can freely choose the area you care about, whether it is your city, hometown or your planned travel destination, and set the earthquake magnitude threshold you want to pay attention to. In the event of an earthquake with a magnitude greater than 3.5, the application will immediately send you a notice to ensure that you will not miss any important information. Whether you want to keep an eye on the local earthquake activities at all times or want to know the latest situation of global earthquakes, MyShake can meet your needs and keep you in control of earthquake dynamics.

Global earthquake monitoring network based on smart phone

Join MyShake's global earthquake monitoring network based on smart phones and start a unique journey of citizen science. In this innovative research project, your mobile phone will be transformed into a powerful mini-seismograph, which can capture earthquake signals anytime and anywhere. Whether you are in a bustling city or a remote area, your equipment will collect earthquake data in real time and transmit it to the global network, which will contribute valuable information to earthquake monitoring and research.

This global citizen science project not only breaks through the limitations of traditional earthquake monitoring, but also provides a new possibility for earthquake early warning. Even in areas not covered by traditional earthquake monitoring networks, MyShake can quickly detect earthquake activities and issue early warnings through crowdsourcing data. This means that no matter where you are, you can get a timely alarm when an earthquake occurs, so as to take necessary protective measures to reduce the potential harm caused by the earthquake.

By participating in this project, you will not only become an important member of global earthquake monitoring, but also contribute to scientific research and public safety. MyShake enables everyone to be a participant in earthquake monitoring and jointly build a safer and more resilient earth.
