kashima

Interactive Seismic Event Mapping and Catalog Management

Python library for seismic event visualization and catalog processing. Builds reproducible Folium-based web maps that combine global earthquake catalogs (USGS ComCat, Global CMT NDK, ISC Bulletin), fault databases (GEM, USGS Quaternary, EFSM20, user GeoJSON), the global ISC station layer, and optional user event catalogs in the normalized mapper schema under kashima.mapper.

Install

python -m pip install --upgrade pip
python -m pip install kashima

After installing, refresh the user cache before relying on current daily catalogs:

from kashima.mapper import downloadAllCatalogs, updateAllCatalogs

downloadAllCatalogs(include_faults=True)
updateAllCatalogs(include_faults=True)
