Install CSN-Droid to join the Caltech Community Seismic Network, a project that recruits consumer accelerometers in the community to build a dense seismic network.
CSN-Droid uses acceleration data from your device to rapidly measure the intensity of earthquakes that you experience. When your device detects possible seismic activity, a "pick message" transmits your local acceleration and location measurements. Location data is periodically transmitted to build an estimate of network coverage. No other information will be sent, and no personally identifying information will be collected.
Browse today's earthquakes world-wide and view your accelerometer's data, while providing data about the earthquakes you experience.
CSN-Droid is an actively developed research project at Caltech, so expect new features and improvements to be released regularly.
