AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Whatever you do don't click on "view new Bing maps" if you are looking at my Bing map links off NZEQ or Japan quakes.
I thought I would have a look and see whats up

NOW I CAN'T GET THE KMZ FILES TO SHOW!!!!, it keeps reverting to centering over Auckland,NZ
and no matter what I do it the address bar won't take the KMZ address lin.

What a PITA these map people are!
BING is as useless as GOOGLE now
Google did this 10 months ago, and ruined my work

I'll try rebooting my computer and see what happens.

edit: yeah OK, fixed it, there is an option in the bottom right corner to leave Preview, I didn't see it before.
I left them a message "if it ain't broken, don't fix it" and asked if we could have more than 200 icons/markers per map please.


edit2: i have decided the Prefecture graphs are too time consuming.
Instead I'm going to map less than M1 Japanese quakes on a 2nd map per day. I already have the data downloaded, so it shouldn't be that hard. This will pick up the Tremors in the South West of the 4 main islands.
New pies (looks more and more like Pacman)

Ha, When I looked, I saw pacman also. Dang, You would think they would be more accommodating. If they want folks to use there product. When I'm not Mobil I will take a better look. Thanks Muzzy.

Ranier's rumbling again. It seems like Mt. Ranier is on a two-week cycle. Every two weeks, it starts to show some activity and then it goes silent for another two weeks. Could this be related to the tides or the moon?

I suspect that the 0.7 at the top of the list is just the start of this cycle and we will see some more shaking in the next few days before she goes silent again.

yeah that's how I look at it too, it is almost like these map people are trying to discourage the use of their products.
I can't see why, even if I had 5000 icons/markers on one map how does it effect the map provider?, the bandwidth being used to view the map is on MY computer, or whoever's computer is looking.
Maybe its because of the NSA spying on everything, they just can't keep up with that amount of volume. We know Google, Apple and Microsoft are providing the NSA with everything that goes on.
Or someone does't want us to know what is really going on

7 quakes (micros's) at Mt Fuji 15/10/2015

further to: muzzy
At least Bing still works for up to 200 icons, new Google maps is a right-off, absolutely useless for plotting multiple icons.
But it's not as good as the old Classic Google Maps.
example on 12/10/2015 (less than M1) Japan, Hida Mountains.
It is hard to see stacked icons/markers on Bing when you are zoomed out to country wide level.
This screenshot shows the Hida Swarm, you wouldn't know anything is afoot there at all.

but zoom in ............

you have to be at 2mile/5km scale before they show as a bunch.
With Google Classic Maps you could see the black shadows from the orb icons at a larger zoom level

wow many 5 pointers on different fault lines. It just seems super instable at the moment.

for a bit of a laugh
pacman animation
made from the Japan Oct pies

seriously though there isn't all that much variation, only once did the ~M1's go over 200, and the M1+'s haven't ... yet

Deep EQ's like that can lead to more shallow ones. That is my main concern right now. There have been a bunch of them especially in South america just in the last 12 hours.

Yep I'm watching.

Stay off the roof's muzzy. LOL!!!

a reply to: crappiekat
Actually the roof is a pretty safe place to be in an earthquake. I was on one twice during the Cook Strait M5's in 2013, seen people running out the building, wondered what the fuss was about, we didn't even feel it up there ( 3 stories)
and also up there there is nothing that can fall on you.
Safe in a Tsunami too.
more pluses than minuses I think.

a reply to: muzzy

Now that you mention that, I think I remember you posting that some time back.

Things seem to have calmed down.

Be Well.

Update on Mt. Rainier.

It seems that yesterday, they had some shaking nearer the surface. This is the shallowest in the last 20 days. I hope that's not a sign of things to come.

I call it a swarm as the 2 x M4's were in the middle time wise, with what are now 66 foreshocks.

Got alittle swarm going on.

earthquake.usgs.gov...

It's seems to be very active right now.

Just to add. 3.5 is the largest. This is a very populated area, I wonder if they are feeling these.

Anyway, Check it out. Interesting.
