Felt earthquakes and reported intensity in Colombia · SGC
Earthquakes with public felt reports published by the Colombian Geological Survey since 2009. One row per earthquake, with magnitude, depth, location and maximum EMS-98 intensity; not one row per citizen response. Intensity describes reported effects and differs from magnitude. This register does not contain every detected earthquake or establish verified damage.

Colombia: felt earthquakes by maximum EMS-98 intensity
Earthquake counts by maximum EMS-98 intensity reported to SGC since 2009. Intensity ranges from 1 to 12 and describes reported effects, not magnitude or verified damage. This does not count citizen responses or every detected earthquake.
Quick read
2 accounts for 46% of the displayed total (3,499). Together with 4, the top two categories make up 69.8%.
Preview
Search a location and compare magnitude with maximum EMS-98 intensity. Each row counts an earthquake with reports, not people or forms. Date grouping uses UTC; the SGC display time is retained in the record. Reported effects and automatic assessments do not establish verified damage.
