At one stage, I noticed that quakes on my DataView page were labelled with the details of the appropriate quake…that does not seem to happen any-more…what have I accidentally turned off that is causing the details not to appear?
My recollection is that the magnitude of the quake must be above 3, and that at your station you can detect the quake without setting a filter.
Hello Dunbrokin,
First, to check if you have inadvertently turned off the Events Annotations on DataView, you can go to Settings
(the gear icon high on the right) and then check the status of the Annotate with events
slider, turning it back ON if necessary.
If the slider is ON, then, as jheiler said, currently, the algorithm that automatically labels the various events on DataView only displays events that can be identified without filtering, as this element introduces more complexity to the code in reference to the distance between the station and the earthquake epicenter.
In the future, we hope to expand this functionality to be more adaptive and performant, to identify more earthquakes (especially local ones, which are of greater interest to many Shakers) and display proper labels on your data stream.
Can you give a rough timeframe on these proposed developments? I’m particularly interested in any ability to identify hypocenters of local small tremors.
Hello Howard, welcome to the community!
As of now, there is still no ETA for this particular DataView feature, so I cannot provide an estimate on when it will be available.
However, you can rest assured that when it is available, we’ll announce it here on the forum and via newsletter as usual.
Thank you for your continued interest!
