The USGS provides earthquake data in a number of different formats, updated every 5 minutes. Visit the USGS GeoJSON Feed page and pick a data set to visualize. When you click on a data set, for example 'All Earthquakes from the Past 7 Days', you will be given a JSON representation of that data. You will be using the URL of this JSON to pull in the data for our visualization.
- Create a map using Leaflet that plots all of the earthquakes from your data set based on their longitude and latitude.
- Your data markers should reflect the magnitude of the earthquake in their size and color. Earthquakes with higher magnitudes should appear larger and darker in color.
- Include popups that provide additional information about the earthquake when a marker is clicked.
- Create a legend that will provide context for your map data.
- Plot a second data set on our map.
- Add a number of base maps to choose from as well as separate out our two different data sets into overlays that can be turned on and off independently.
- Add layer controls to our map.
- Your task is to use a Leaflet plugin (they can be found at http://leafletjs.com/plugins.html) to visualize your earthquake as it takes place over a period of time.
