You can see seismic reports of national and international tremors in a simple way. These reports also include an image with a seismogram (record of the earthquake with a real instrument), only if it is available.

Also included is a tab with a list of seismic stations with instruments to record these events (seismographs) of Chile to visualize the seismic records and the seismic activity of the area. Useful for monitoring.

Chile Alert is able to report seismic events in real time, and after a few minutes it delivers the tremor report with a seismogram and map.
