Earthquakes

GDACS automatically monitors earthquakes. For each earthquake, humanitarian impact is calculated based on magnitude, depth, affected population and their vulnerability and resilience. Detailed reports with affected infrastructure are available. Each 15 minutes, GDACS collects - in an automatic way - media reports, damage maps, ReliefWeb situation reports and more about the earthquakes.
