Earthquake | Livemap
I built a single-page web application using the ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript. For the main interface, I implemented a rotating 3D globe using SceneView that visualizes live, worldwide earthquakes. The entire project was built as pure static HTML, making it highly portable and deployable to any host.
Key Technical Features
Real-time Data Integration: Utilized a GeoJSONLayer to pull in a live data feed from the USGS, configuring dynamic sizing and coloring based on magnitude with auto-refresh.
Interactive UI/UX: Built a side panel listing recent earthquake news, featuring custom click-to-fly navigation that automatically pans the 3D globe to the corresponding epicenter.
