Epicentral Tips and Screenshots
Specific Usage Tips
If you are browsing the historical catalogs set the colors to work by depth. Most events will be red, but only those with no depth estimates will be gray.
If you are exploring the large earthquake historical catalogs, use the scale by rupture area estimate and a scale factor of 1 for both the global and the detail maps. If you want to see the vents from a global perspective, increase the global scale factor to about 5x the rupture area estimate.
If you are browsing recent earthquakes on the global map and you want to see the small events, use a symbol size proportional to the magnitude-cubed and set the scale factor to something large, like 10x or even 20x.
