The National Earthquake Information Center (NEIC)

The National Earthquake Information Center (NEIC) is a U.S. government agency that monitors and reports on earthquakes worldwide. Using a network of seismic sensors and advanced technology, the NEIC quickly detects and analyzes earthquake activity, providing timely information on their location, size, and impact. This data helps emergency responders, scientists, and the public understand seismic events, assess risks, and improve safety measures. The NEIC plays a crucial role in earthquake detection, contributing to scientific research and disaster response efforts globally.
