EMSC Earthquake Scraper

Pulls recent earthquakes worldwide from the EMSC seismic portal, filterable by magnitude and time window. No login, no proxy, no browser.

Input

FieldTypeNotes
minMagnitudestringOnly events at or above this magnitude. Default 3.
daysintegerHow many days back to search. Default 7.
maxItemsintegerCap on events, most recent first. Default 100.

Output

One row per event: id, time, lastUpdate, magnitude, magnitudeType, region, depthKm, latitude, longitude, eventType, authority, sourceCatalog.

Notes

  • The response is GeoJSON, whose geometry.coordinates are [longitude, latitude, depth] — easy to read backwards. This Actor takes latitude and longitude from the properties block instead, where they are named explicitly, and reports depth as a positive kilometre figure.
  • A query matching nothing returns HTTP 204 with an empty body, not an empty feature list, so that status is handled separately rather than being parsed as JSON.
  • magnitudeType matters when comparing events: mb, ml, mw and m are different scales and are not directly interchangeable.
  • EMSC is Euro-Mediterranean but its catalogue is worldwide; events are revised after initial publication, which is what lastUpdate tracks.
