Abstract

Earthquakes are an unpredictable and highly impactful natural phenomenon. In Mexico, the Servicio Sismológico Nacional generates detailed information on earthquakes occurring in the country. Although valuable, this information is not always easy to understand due to its technical level. This work proposes a system that transforms seismic information into visual representations, facilitating analysis. Additionally, the system can relate seismic information with demographic and economic information from the Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía to conduct broader analyses. To guarantee access to the system, open technologies are used and it is freely distributed to all interested users.
