Earthquakes in Austria

Earthquakes in Austria during the last 14 days as registered by the Austrian seismological service. Yellow symbols show earthquakes of the last 14 days. Orange points denote events of the last three days. In red, earthquakes of the last 24 hours are shown. Below you will find a self updating list of current events.

Limits

The amount of data that can be retrieved is limited by a maximum of 172800 data points. Available data in minute resolution maximally covers the last year. Older data needs to be downloaded from the data archive. Accessing archive data requires authorized access. Please contact the administrator if required.

Output formats and available elements

Output formats depend on the requested data. Magnetic variation data is usually provided as IAGA-2002 ascii format. K values (available only at WIC) are provided in dpk format. Meteorological data will be obtained in a comma separate ascii format. Meta information will always be provided as json. Except for meta information output formats can be forced into either CSV or json by using the format option.
Example: of=iaga2002, of=ascii, of=json, of=csv

This potassium sensor of the supergradiometer, manufactured by GEM, measures the absolute value of the geomagnetic field and is the most sensitive geomagnetic instrument at the Observatory. For interpretation, the gradients of several sensors are analyzed.magnetism
Among others, geomagnetic data is used to characterize the impact of space weather events on earth. The dominent source of space weather are processes on the sun. A live image of the sun (EIT 304 from SOHO, ESA/NASA) is shown above.
