Hello World! We are three coding-rookies from Germany. We want to create an earthquake detector that visualizes a world map with earthquakes all over the world in real time. Enjoy!

How can we visualize geo data?

karinahasler commented 3 years ago

Geo data could be visualized through a heat map. Good explanation found here:

Hey coding people, here's the current status. There is an OpenStreetMap with circle markers for all earthquakes of the last 24 hours that vary in size and color according to the earthquake's magnitude. There is an additional layer in order to show or hide the tectonic plates.

Looks really cool. Good idea with the tectonic plates. Keep going Karina 💯
