Graph of Raspberry Shake stations by state and province

[Chris Mentrek]

    

     Howdy!

     Just for fun, here's a graph showing how many Raspberry Shake stations there are per state in the U.S.A.:

    ... and here's the number of Raspberry Shake stations per province in Canada:

  

     At the moment, there's only a single Raspberry Shake in Mexico (in Baja California Sur).  So... it gets its own graph!  ¡Así se hace, station AM.RC9AD!

Chris! This is great :) We need to get these numbers up! We are now shipping all of the orders made in December, January and February and also some units to folks who never received their Shakes. So there should be more units popping up on the map soon.

Does it appear that the more regional seismic activity there is.. the more R-Shakes there are? California/Washington/Oklahoma (fracking and cracking?) New Zealand.. Social self-selection?

The situation is strangely different in Europe, tho. Lots of stations went to Germany and the UK, which are not known for high seismicity.

Italy and Greece have room for improvement in Shake-density :-)

Hi There, 

    There has been quite a lot of interest in seismology here in the UK with over 600 school 

seismometers having been sold since 2007 and very active support from the BGS.

I like it😎😎😎.

I have parts for 4 more on order for Baja Sur. Going to donate them to the state university geologist mapping faults in the southern end of the peninsula.

I'm Working on getting the packaged cost down to make it more viable for our country since the assembled shake is probably around a week's pay for many that would be interested.

     Hi, Kelly and Heinz-Bernd:

     I like the questions that you're asking! 

     Just for fun, here's a map showing the current Raspberry Shake stations and earthquake risk (for the contiguous 48 states in the U.S.A., at least):

      I'm afraid I have no idea how to create such a map for areas outside the U.S.A.  Do you think you could try to make one for Europe, or the U.K.?

  (The seismic risk map data are from the United States Geological Survey's Seismic Hazard Maps website.  The Raspberry Shake stations are from www.raspberryshake.org)

That's Awesome Chris!!

That is a great heat map Chris!

I've done something similar in the past as a demonstration of using leaflet.js with a heatmap plugin.

It's neat and interactive and you can play with it live here. 

If you want to build your own I have a description of the process here.

Actually that has embarrassingly reminded me of another couple of earthquake visualizations that I've done in the past.

The first is a interactive data exploration type thing where you can dynamically select different parameters from a range of seismic events;

Instructions for building similar graphs are here.

The other is a 'pattern of life' graph of earthquakes in New Zealand between July 2010 and August 2012. Magnitude 3 and above.

Apologies if the addition of loads of images isn't helpful, but maybe the information could be :-).

There is a geoserver offering a layer for global seismic acitivity and hazards, see here :

http://sedac.ciesin.columbia.edu/geoserver/web/?wicket:bookmarkablePage=:org.geoserver.web.demo.MapPreviewPage

and search for "quake" in the layer search box

Would that help? I cn actually get this displayed as a background in SWARM, but not the stations...how did you do that?

     Hi, d3noob:

     Holy buckets, that's a ton of great information!!  I'll start working my way through the tutorials this weekend.

Thanks!

- Chris

(P.S. -- I feel a kind of kinship with the Raspberry Shake stations around Wellington, since they're at 'opposite latitudes' from my location!)

[Chris Mentrek]

     Hi, Heinz-Bernd:

     Thanks for your link to the geoserver with the global seismic hazard maps! 

     Here's one way to try to combine the Raspberry Shake stations with the hazard maps:

• It's possible to download the seismic hazard maps in Google Earth's format, .KML files.  (I think "KML" stands for "Keyhole Markup Language," or something.  Nobody cares.)
  
• I've attached another Google Earth file that includes all of the (current) Raspberry Shake stations.
• If you'd like, you can use Google Earth to open both files.  Then you'll have a combined map shownig the Raspberry Shake stations and the seismic hazard map!

Geklagtes Leid ist halbes Leid,

Excellent map, thanks for sharing the Google Earth files.
