App Store Description

VolcanoScope is your essential tool for tracking earthquakes and volcanic activity worldwide in near real time. It brings together official data from trusted sources such as USGS and Smithsonian and presents it in a clear, user-friendly way. Whether you live in a seismic zone, travel frequently, or simply love earth science, VolcanoScope keeps you informed and prepared.

With VolcanoScope you can instantly see where an earthquake has occurred, how strong it was, how deep it happened, and how close it is to you. The app also lets you log your own observations: record eruptions, unusual seismic activity, add notes and photos, and then analyze your personal statistics in easy-to-read dashboards. Compare regions, spot trends, and get notifications about new events or changes in the status of your favorite volcanoes.

Key features:

– Recent Quakes: View the latest earthquakes with magnitude, location, time, and depth. Events are grouped by date for easier browsing. Tap any event for full details including coordinates and direct links to USGS data.

– My Observations: Create your own records of earthquakes and volcanoes. Add a title, note, intensity level, and optional photo. All your observations are saved and organized by date, so you can easily review or update them.

– Dashboard & Analytics: Track your personal activity and statistics over time. See how many notes you made per day or month, monitor events near you, and export your data. Compare multiple regions by frequency, average magnitude, or intensity to better understand seismic patterns.

– Volcano Profiles: Browse a curated list of active and dormant volcanoes. Search or filter by country or status. Each volcano profile includes name, current status, coordinates, and a concise description. Follow specific volcanoes or regions and enable notifications to get alerts about changes.

– Customizable Settings: Set your default magnitude threshold and radius for “near me” alerts. Choose your preferred units (km or miles), time format, and map appearance. Manage notifications for earthquakes and volcanoes directly within the app.

VolcanoScope solves the problem of accessing accurate and timely information about Earth’s most powerful natural processes by putting everything you need in one place. Its intuitive interface makes it easy to stay up to date, personalize alerts, and keep your own scientific log of events. Whether you are a local resident, a traveler, or an enthusiast, VolcanoScope helps you stay ahead of nature.
