Shake, Rattle and Roll - Recent Earthquakes Map

Just a little aside for map junkies... The USGS (United States Geological Survey) has a regularly updated map that shows recent earthquake activity around the world. Now while it is logical when you consider plate tectonics, it's rather scary that the vast majority of earthquakes seem to be taking place along coastlines rather than, say, in the middle of the ocean.

GeoPlotting Journal

This weblog/journal deals with a variety of topics relating to geographical data, as well as GIS (Geographical Information Systems) software and GPS devices. Posting is currently suspended, until a new version of this journal has been developed.

About Me

I'm a geek/ philosopher/ composer/ artist/ cook/ photographer/ web programmer/ consultant/ blah-blah-blah who is also a published writer and author. I worked with GIS systems and cartographic projections for seven years. I've had a love of maps and globes ever since my father gave me an atlas when I was in grade school. This is one of several blogs that I write.
